It sure can Drew! The Onan Generator - QG 7000i Onboard RV Generator item # CM44MR is the same size as the 5500-watt Onan generator. It measures 33-5/8" long x 22-1/8" wide x 16-3/4" tall and weighs 201 lbs.
What kind of RV do you have?

Thanks for the reply. Currently have a 2019 coachmen mirada. 1600 watts of solar that can run everything but the 2 AC. I have soft start for both AC as it would pull too much when starting after I had the solar installed. Installer told me it was because the 5500 onan was a 30 amp system. Would I have the same trouble with the 7000i?
