On Board Generator vs Portable Generator
We are researching the purchase of a new toy hauler. And one of the options we are struggling with is whether or not to go with a portable generator, or the factory installed generator. Your opinion...

A properly installed built-in genny should not be loud, or shakey, or put fumes into the interior. Our 4K Onan in our Class C is very well-mannered, so we're able to run it whenever we need it.
It's amazing that folks when shopping for a new rig will opt to spend the extra big bucks that a built-in genny costs and then after they've bought it complain that it's worthless whenever they try to use it. How about having the dealer start it up before they buy and then rejecting the RV if they don't like what they hear, feel, and smell from the generator? Maybe RV manufacturers would eventually get the message and begin doing things differently.
