4000 Watt Generator
We have been researching Class C's and notice that a lot come with the 4000 watt generator versus the 5000 watt. We don't think we would ever need to use the generator for A/C, but still would like...

There are too many assumptions in here to make this good advice.
In general, you can't have two air conditioners with 30 amp service.....and you can't run two off of a 5K generator either.
But that depends on what size the A/C units are.
I can't imagine that they make units small enough to run two off of 4KW.
She had posted in the other thread the option of two AC units and 50 amp service for the RV. That is the package deal she mentioned. My thought is if you go that way, which she should, go with the bigger generator if indeed it is an option. She mentioned later she would only run one AC on the generator, but I still think she should cover all possibilities with the larger generator if it's feasible and she goes with the two AC units and 50 amp option. At least with the power consumption of roof AC units I've had, I think the 5000 would run both as general rule. A little more wouldn't hurt if available.
