Can you have a generator installed in a used 2013 30 WRS

How hard is it to have a permanent generator installed in a 2013 wrs trailer ?

I was looking at photos of the 2013 30WRS and I found this unit with a generator mounted behind the propane tanks. Hope this helps.

The 30WRS now come optioned for a gen set in the location behind the propane tanks behind the lower front valance. You may want to consider a gen that already has a tank on it or you will need to install a fuel station.

Do they give you a chose between propane or gasoline?

Never seen the option for propane gen set for a W&P. But you never know. This would be a great option for the OP as he could get a gen set that could be powered by the two tanks saving him the hassle of adding a fuel station.

They make propane conversion kits for generators. They aren't too hard to install. We converted a bunch of 10k and 12k portable generators at work from gasoline to LP for a specific project. Only downside was the LP consumption, our beasts were sucking down over 20# of LP a day.
