You would live in Nevada or Arizona in the Summer without an AC? I plan to full-time and don't have the luxury to pick up and move up the Summer months.

I am moving to the high desert area out west. Guess I will be roast meat in the Summer if I have to run the generator all day. Neighbors will get tired real quick of me running it constantly.
