what would you get??

I will be using 2 GC batteries and mount 1 SP on my new yakima mega warrior rack that will mount on the crossbars over my bubble-top 2001 E350 XLT. What would you get if you were still earning money and cost was a minor factor. ( I am doing my homework ) just do not have first hand experience. I will not be needing a lot of power and have the locations worked out. Thank you all.

I am installing my battery bank this weekend.&nbsp; Got it about half done today.&nbsp; I have three group 29 deep cycle 12v batteries in my battery box.&nbsp; They are regular flooded batteries for now.&nbsp; I am going to see how they work out.&nbsp; When they eventually wear out they will probably be replaced with their AGM versions.&nbsp; <br><br>I will be ordering my solar panels next week when I get paid again.&nbsp; I am going with two 145 watt panels for a total of about 290 watts right now.&nbsp; I would like to add two more of these panels in the future.&nbsp; <br><br>In my dreams I'd like to have six panels (my roof could fit them).&nbsp; That would give me almost 900 watts worth of solar on the roof.&nbsp; I could actually run the air conditioner off of that during the day and keep the van cool.&nbsp; My air conditioner is rated at 700 watts so it might even work.
