When we are out on our jet ski I alway wonder what people think when they see a one ton diesel truck with a 12 foot jet ski trailer in the parking lot. The polar opposite of what you saw! LOL

Depends on the draw of the fan and the power ability of the inverter. You'd be better off with 12v fans so that you don't suffer from the loss going from 12v to 110.

I upgraded last night and traded in my '11 Sierra for a '16 Sierra. Went with a 3500 SRW this time so eventually I'll have the capacity to tow a larger 5th wheel!
