Exercising the generator
This is the first RV we have had with a generator. My question is how often should I run it just to keep it running well?

ONAN? FOG? Boy have they ever got that right...
Onan is to generators what Lucas is to electrical.
Sell at manufacturer's cost to the military then screwum on maintenance and repair parts. Been inside everything from a 1,000 watt to a 10 Megawatt Onan and they are insanity incarnate. They spend endless time and money to design units that will not function with anything other than Onan parts.
Company in Vallejo CA. wanted to sell me an Onan generator so bad they cut the price in half. I didn't let the door hit me in the --- on the way out. They supplied my KATO generator. Then went out of business. They supplied Mare Island Naval Shipyard for decades.
Me and Oh-MAN (!) don't get along too good. I like stuff that lasts. With lowest upkeep.
