One thing I *really* don't like about motorhomes is that the generator must be run to get any decent
cooling in the rig - even while going down the highway. We were passing one on I-95, just as we got
next to it, something made a loud 'bang' in the generator compartment. I think he blew the engine in
the thing. Scary.


On the other hand, isn't it illegal in many states to be riding inside a
towed RV?

On what other hand? Your question makes no sense in the context given.


Where did you ever get that notion? I have never felt the need to run
the generator underway.

I don't know why the guy had his running, but I do know the friends who bought the Winnebago Journey
use the generator to cool the rig. The little air conditioner in the 'cab' isn't sufficient when
driving where it's hot.
