I have noticed that the "default" generator from the factory for most of the 5th Wheels seem to be the Cummins Onan 5500. I am looking at a Cyclone 4100. For most of you running large 5th wheels like this with two A/C's, with the Onan 5500, do you ever have enough issues with yours to warrant a recommendation to me to upgrade to the Onan 7000? The dimensions are the same so it will fit, but it gives you another 12.5 amps and the fuel consumption is almost the exact same as the 5500. The price is roughly 1k more. I am COMPLETELY new at RV's and my only concern is popping breakers and overloading the output capability. Keep in mind it will not only be my wife and I in the 5th wheel, but our four kids as well. BTW, I was going to tag this on to a few other simliar threads I found, but they were all labeled "closed thread". Thanks for any advice. Daron
