Rent a generator, but you are still going to need a decent battery bank (at least two 6V golf cart batteries) and a GOOD multi-step charger (typically the charger built into converter does not to a good job). Convince the owner of the TT they should upgrade these items and maybe offer to split the cost.
Sadly, there is NO SIMPLE, INEXPENSIVE, GOOD way to recharge an RV battery bank from a car charging system. If you really want to "charge as you drive", you will need a 1000-2000W sine wave inverter, connected, with sufficiently large enough cables, as close as possible to the vehicle battery (with a fuse, of course) and an extension cord back to the TT charger.
