John, the point is that if you are thinking of it for camping use ....
and plan to stay at public campgrounds ... they are most likely not
going to allow use of a generator like that. It's too noisy and an
annoyance to other campers. You might not mind, but others will
definitely complain. Heck, I remember back when we were into the RV
thing for a while. Campsites didn't like you running the generator
that came with the camper.

Anyone in a nearby tent will especially hate it.

Actually, I can't even think of a place we've stayed where tents were nearby. Usually the tent area
is well removed from the RV area.



My favorite campground isn't segregated.

None of them are segregated. But most tent campers don't want to pay extra for water, electricity,
and sewer. So they usually stay in places other than the sites where all that is available.


When you are young with a young family and don't have a camper, you tent
camp at the nicer places so you have a general store, shower, and a pond
or something... Sometimes camping isn't about seeing who can rough it
the most, it's about just getting someplace where you can lay in the sun
for a while and have a drink, a bonfire, and do a little laid back
fishin with the kids..
