Only if you wanted it to do everything.
I'm saying as a supplement.
My coach is set up with generator, propane, house bank AND solar.
Unless I want the ac I never have to use the generator.
200 watts of solar will keep your batteries full all day long even when you're using the coach.
I can run the fantastic fan full blast, the stereo full blast, and all the lights on all day and still have 100% battery at nightfall.

Come daylight the batteries start recharging. By 10am or so I'm usually back to full charge.

Point is, if he tossed a couple panels on the roof he would stay charged all weekend and not have to rely on the alternator to recharge when hitting the road.
