I've got and use over 20 of them ranging from 750 watts up to 10,000 watts. Mod-wave and sine-wave.
My entire house, shop and barn run off of inverters and I do lots of electric welding. So, don't believe silly stories about how they don't make good power.
The inverter MUST get the power it needs from whatever battery you use. The alternator gets used for recharging the battery when that inverter is NOT in use. For high draw, DC voltage drop to the inverter is usually the biggest issue. During a surge, if incoming DC drops to 10.5 even for second, some models will automatically shut down.
Plenty of rugged 2000 watt (4000 watt surge) mod-wave inverters around for $130-$150.
A so-called "true" sine-wave inverter will be more pricey and be more inefficient. But for some electronics, you need the sine-wave. Especially for most battery chargers and microwave ovens.
