Nothing until you wake up in the middle of the night and have to go to the restroom. :shhh:

All of our parks have 10PM-7AM quiet hours and they ENFORCE them...ask me how I know... so a generator wont really do the trick at night anyway...at least in our state-parks...and many do not have power on the waterfront, which is where we camp...now in the "sticks" or in the "parking lot" type campgrounds that'd be great. I have a 15,000 watt generator but of course it's WAY WAY WAY to big and heavy.. I thought about buying another, like the Honda 2000, and putting it inside of a dog box to "disquise" it :lol:

Keith,
I have had to replace my A/C I installed an old used unit I had laying around. It was not the easiest thing to do but it was doable I had to do it in camp at about 9:30 at night by 11:00 I was done and the wife was happy.

Another thing you can do; Steveh has his A/C loose he hooks it up with hoses to the bottom of the tear so it does not block the door. Look at his album for pictures. If I were to do it again this might be the way I would go.
