Installed a pair of matching Group 27 Deep Cycle batteries for the trip next month. Solar panel on the roof of the 5th wheel keeps them topped off.
Re-jetted my Generator for high altitude too. Won't need it all that much, but better to have it than not.
Be camping at about 9500ft elevation. Driving about 2/3rds the way up to Clayton NM, staying there overnight, then hitting the mountain passes the next day. Rather be fresh and rested for those than tired from driving all day. Top off the water tank there too. I'll fuel up the on board tank closer in. Holds 30 gallons. Should be more than enough for the RZR and Generator. June 24th- 7/2 or 7/3....

That should work nicely. Lithium batteries have their advantage but 10x the price of a regular battery ain't one of them.

Sounds like fun. I'm looking forward to the upcoming pictures. Living at sea level (7') I have trouble with elevation starting at 4000'. It would take me a day or so to get used to the elevation you are heading for.
I've been hearing good things about the BattleBorn lithium batteries that seem popular with RV and truck campers.
Enjoy the trip.
