Default Generator options, need help.

I'm trying to develop the plan for my build and I'm struggling with how to go about providing power to the RV. I know it sounds like a stupid question, but I can't seem to find the answer I'm looking for. I've seen the generator setups on the site here, done a bunch of searching. My question is, is there a reason you can't use a portable type generator to power everything up? I already have a 6500W generator for power outages, can't I use it to power things up inside? Also, is there a way to wire it where I can plug the generator in for certain situations and then have a shore plug-in for campsites? How about when the engine is running on the road? I could run an inverter off the alternator, correct? Sorry for the newbie questions, just trying to sort it out, thanks.
