No need to choose one over the other since one toggle switch lets you run the Onan on gas or propane any time you wish. Also, installation is simple and fast to do so far from a pain.

I realize the genset would run cleaner, but I don't use it enough to justify the PIA of converting it... and I don't carry that much propane anyway.
Which propane is used for cooking and if it's cold heating. The summer show I used to dry camp runs four days, full tanks of gas keep the Onan going.
I doubt the propane tank would. However, I got tired of roasting on the asphalt (Greenville, SC) and this year I'm booked into the local state park
campground.If you have a big propane tank and use the genset a lot, it might be worth your whileto convert it.

Jerry, if I have t pull it out on the slides, it's a pain by definition Smile For my uses, there just isn't any upside.
