Um... I could also just get a catalytic or a Buddy heater.

Good lord no, I hate generators. The first thing I do when I get a new RV is tear the **** thing out to make room for more batteries. Generators are just too obnoxious to my neighbhors. I do my camping at the beach, and I absolutely hate when someone parked next to me has their generator aimed at me just so they can watch their TV all day. Or worse yet, use it to make electrically brewed coffee! Or use their microwave. I've found with just a little bit of ingenuity a generator is absolutely unnecessary for an RV.
