Hot summer is coming and Im thinking alternative for the apu. Im thinking about putting generator like honda 2000 or 3000 generator, dont know which one better? Or maybe diesel generator?. Also what type of ac? Portable? Window? Split ac? How many btu is ok running in 100f degree weather.
I have 12000 BTU split system AC and 4kWt diesel generator. Can survive any heat.[attachment=2724][attachment=2726]

Snailexpress did you connected it to your fuel tanks? Does it has fuel pump or you use some electric fuel pump?

You have to drill only one hole to slide tubes and wire inside the cab. About 2 inches in diameter.[attachment=2727]
