First time poster here, but I just recently purchased a 92' Itasca Spirit that is in really good condition, just under 70k miles, V6... but the previous owner removed the generator and put in a diesel heater! I had purchased this to be an off-grid camper van sort of thing while I save to purchase a house, and so having the generator to run the AC during the weekends & evenings where I would be in the RV would be nice to have. The problem is: how difficult is it to find the Onan or Kohler generators that would've been stock in this RV?
Conversely, is it even possible to buy say, a Harbor Freight generator that you could mount to a cargo rack, and just run the shorepower cord to the cargo rack? That might be easier.
Figured I'd ask and get some thoughts.
