Dakzuki: thanks for the info on the noise. If you had to do it again would you go with diesel or lpg? I am leaning towards diesel. Thanks.
Honestly I'm not completely sure. When we were at Yellowstone I felt like a real jerk running my generator (just to charge the batteries) as we were the loudest thing for a 1 mile radius. Some folks were using little Hondas to charge and they were way less obnoxious. I have an EU2000 I've been know to carry just because it's so much more quiet in ECO mode. You can let it run in ECO mode charging the batteries for long periods without pissing too many people off.
I know of one person in the Yahoo group that ditched his factory generator, carries a gas one (I think a 2400 Yamaha) and relies primarily on solar for charging.
I think I'm going to add solar to mine.
If I had it to do all over again I think I might go LP and solar. We hardly used any LP (maybe 1/3 of a load) on a month long trip of the western national parks. We were frugal with the LP using a cat heater (on 1 lb bottles) or electric heat if plugged in. We seldom run the AC.
