Just like with our 33' toy hauler TT, we run our rooftop AC via Onan genny to keep rig cool while traversing down the road, nothing like arriving to your destination with a pre-cooled rig. In our class A as weather conditions dictate we certainly run our AC units via genny without ever considering costs compared to comfort, if you are not bedding down in a tent or truck bed you are glamping.
Pretty simple really, just do what works for you. Forget fretting about putting hours on your genny, Onans simply love to run and often times issues begin with their stagnation from lack of use. As for fuel costs, I pay more for a cup of coffee than having onboard Onan power our entire rig for a few hours, why have all the amenities an RV provides if you can't use them whenever and wherever.
