2000 generator
« on: October 13, 2016, 02:57:07 PM »

At this point you probably should get which ever one the store still has! I'd grab a Honda!

I'd also grab a Honda but I wouldn't pay a premium price for one right now with this pending storm.

I have the yamaha  ef2800 inverter.  It will run my a/c in my trailer which was a big plus for me.

 That being said, I wouldn't trade my Yamaha kicker engine for anything.

My Dad has a Honda 2000 for his camper. Quiet, great on fuel and light enough to put it into a storage compartment on the back of the camper ( the place where you'd install a permanent generator if you wanted one mounted)

Flip a coin or pick the color you like  :twocents:

I have friends with both yama and hondas and no complaints either way

If youll be in Spokane anytime I have a honda 2000 I'll sell you. I have two but don't need both anymore. PM me if interested. I was going to sell on craigslist after hunting season when I have time.

Hondas are great and quiet.  I'd go with craigslist for big savings.  Older ones were made in Japan.  Newer ones somewhere else, maybe Korea.
