My thoughts exactly. He'll end up with more value on the roof than the MH is worth. I don't know what model that MH is but most of the Toyota chassis are fairly small. Have you checked the roof for enough space for what you have planned? Have you checked where you are going to store all the batteries?
I think it would serve you well to take a good hard realistic look at what appliances you WANT to run and what's REALISTIC to run on batteries. You can spend thousands and thousands of dollars anmd end up running the air conditioner for maybe 10 min. There are several folks here that have real world experience with boon docking and running a coffee maker or other small appliances. Running larger appliances like an A/C unit, or induction heater, etc. on an inverter takes a lot of reserve battery capacity and a very substantial amount of solar energy to replenish it.
I wish you all the best in your endeavor.
