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.

Can't go wrong with a Yamaha or Honda.

 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
To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.

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.
