Driving with the generator on
Just curious if anyone knows the difference in MPG when riding with and without the generator on. Has anyone done any measurements on the gas mileage they get? Thanks

What are you going to use the generator for? If your going to pop some corn or make lunch it will not be on long enough to make a real dent in MPGs. I think stopping to get out and buy some thing then get back up to speed - combine the cost of gas and food and the value for time. If it is just a few minutes for a lunch or dinner in the micro wave, I think in the long run your better off using the generator. If you want to run it for more than 5-10 minutes to watch tv and run the computer and all the other do dads the equation starts getting more difficult and it is a question of how much those things bring peace of mind to the driver.
On my RV, a 2007 Lazy Daze Mid Bath built on a e450, the dash AC cools the rig just fine on the road here in the Mid Atlantic when the temps are in the mid 90s and humidity is in the 90% range. I added this statement because different rigs may cool at different rates.
