.....I can run my generator for years on the money I save by not getting into inverters and converters.....the trick is the choice of appliances and the way/time they are used-not the amount of juice you have stored for conversion to 120vac.....just by using the available systems on today's...

.....ya had to steal the Freightliner with those miles at $8.5K....way to go!....the MH Conversion isn't that difficult in this economy with all the truck guys eating each others first born. It is a buyers market and one has to deal that way.....and never do anything without checking out the...
