You can do a lot with an upgraded battery bank and heavy duty jumper cables .
Two AGM batteries in our diesel pickup .
Two group 27 (6 volt GC2 would be better )in the RV .
We prefer dry camping with no hookups .
We do not have a genny or solar .
We have an annual 9 day campout with friends that do not allow gennys.
None have solar although we have lots of sunshine in CENTRAL Oregon .
We use 12 foot # 2 guage jumper cables to connect the 2 Exide EDGE AGM batteries in our diesel gmc and the 2 group 27 batteries on our trailer .
The pickup gets driven every 3rd day and the EDGE AGM batteries get charged . We hook back up to the RV batts with our HD jumpers and all 4 batteries equalize .
We do not ( any more ) run the truck to recharge the RV batts .
i paid $ 140 each for exide EDGE AGM batteries at BiMart .
