Going in a smaller direction then Goose. Our nest is 1 acre at 6400 feet, bought it already fenced, with a shed and water storage tank. Also had septic system the size Goose is planning.
RV has 500 watts of solar and there were 2 240 watt Trina panels in the shed.
Since the RV only needs 200 watts in the AZ desert that gives us 780 watts of panels to use. Also have another 500 watts here in FL to go back out to AZ in the spring. Total wattage to start is 1280 if I did the math right.
After a lot of dithering pulled the trigger yesterday for 4 12 volt 100Ah AOLITHIUM with Bluetooth and low temperature cutoff. Price less then 4 good 125 Ah AGM's. I have a TS 45 PWM and Victron 100/20 MPPT. That is .1875C but close enough to .2C for now.
