All will have inverters and lithium based batteries with a generator.

That was kind of my point, when they start to make them ALL that way, and if I want to buy another it will be that way. I don't have to reengineer what they make today, or what I have unless the mod is simple, risk free and well within my budget ( no pay back and no up benefit to me right now).

i.e. I bought propane for the 1st time last week in over a year. My inside gauge said empty for 1st time ever; but we still had gas, meaning we never fully ran out. Since I was on the road, I got a chance to stop at a Tractor Supply Center for the 1st time. Their propane was $3.29 and I spent $25. I normally get propane for $2.29 at U Haul in Dallas. Either way, Propane is none issue to me, but I rather not have Propane in RV, but I want ALL propane does in the RV with no issues. When that day comes and I need new RV; that is what I will buy. It is akin to why I insisted on buying a RV with 2 ACs. I want what I want when I want it
