That's exactly what I do swart. I have a Honda 2000i mounted on my rear carrier and I plug in my 30 amp RV cord into the generator while driving. I'm able to have my roof AC unit running while driving BUT the majority of roof AC units need a bigger genset (over 2000 watts continuous to run the roof AC!) I don't have cab AC so this set-up works for my rig. Why do you want 110 volt ac working while driving? You do have 12 volt dc available. To install a built-in generator would cost you thousands! Like Maineah stated most of us who need a genny buy a portable one and mount it securely on the back. Couldn't afford the other option! Good Luck & Welcome!
Thanks so much for your reply, it's very helpful! I wanted the ac because myself and 3 other people will be using the rv for a month-long road trip and it gets pretty hot in there during the day (when we'll likely be doing most of our driving). The cab ac doesn't work, and I didn't think the cab ac would cut it, but maybe I'm wrong. Do you think cab ac would be sufficient? Regardless, I will definitely be mounting a portable generator if I decide to get one at all. Thanks again.

First thing you will need to know is how big you will need, the major consumer on an RV is the roof ac. Do you want to run the roof air with the generator?
Yes, I want to run the roof unit. Myself and three other people will be taking a month-long road trip soon and I'd really like to have ac while we're driving. I don't think the ac from the cab will cool off the whole rv, but maybe I'm wrong?

Hey everyone, I recently bought a 1986 Travel Master which doesn't have a generator. I'd like to have electricity while on the road so I'm wanting to install a generator but have no idea about generators in the slightest. What do I need to know about choosing/installing a generator?

I recently purchased a 1986 Travel Master and noticed a faint smell of gasoline in the cab while driving the other day. Once I was home I checked to make sure the gas cap was good and for any noticeable leaks and didn't see any, but I noticed a pretty strong smell of gas coming out of the exhaust pipe. What could be causing this? Does it require immediate attention or am I okay to drive?
Where to look for aftermarket parts for 1986 Travelmaster?

Hey everyone,
I took my Travelmaster to get a tune up and my mechanic said the fuel tank sublet hose was deteriorating pretty bad. Sure enough, after I filled the tank all the way up I noticed about 1/4 of the tank had leaked overnight. I've called around my town to see if anyone has the replacement part but the part has been discontinued by Toyota and I'm having trouble trying to find it online. Any suggestions as to how I can find the part? It's a fuel tank sublet hose for a 1986 Travelmaster. The part number is 7721335110. Thanks!
