There must be some reason your coach came equipped with a 7000. If it were my coach I would replace it with a 7000 even if it cost more. However it's your call.
Good luck and safe travels....
I spoke with Winnebago today. They called up my serial#. Apparently it was totally the purchaser's decision(the unit was special order from the "ability equipped" division). For some reason the purchaser went with a 30amp coach, but upgraded to the Onan 7000k unit. But with basement a/c, and 30 amp EMS, there really isn't much of a way to utilize the 7,000 over the 5500. Limited to 30 amps. So Winnebago said, just replace with 5500 because the 7,000 would be a waste of $. If it were a 50 amp unit, it would be altogether a different situation.
Well, there's your answer so go for the 5500.
Good luck and safe travels :)
