i don't think he can open the tailgate without hitting the genny.....but that is a small price to pay for having the luxury of AC....
and the system cannot be very efficient...that looks like a 10K or 12K BTU air conditioner when a 6K unit would probably work just fine....:grin:.....i bet that unit cycles on and off a lot...
now he just needs to find a way to tap a fuel line into the van's fuel tank and feed it directly to the genny....
by the looks of that rust on the rear fender i wonder how long the frame under the van will continue to support the weight of the genny....that should be an interesting sight to see when the genny falls off onto the road at highway speeds....maybe he will get lucky and the fuel in the genny gas tank will not ignite from the sparks created by the genny sliding on the pavement....:wow:......

Well at least he's eating his vegetables, nothing like a couple boxes of thoroughly road grimed tomatoes for sandwiches later. Hey but look it's in the air conditioned comfort of his Dodge Caravan RV!

The genny is worth more than the car
The copper in the cords are worth more the the van

That is not safe at all. Bgeezus!! Would never catch me with that. But the generator and window air condition should be safe......

Is that for camping and/or overnight use or for everyday driving?

Definitely NOT safe. Why, that air condx could fall off and land on someone's foot.
