Looks like a nice one...quiet is nice too.
"Then I decided spending less than $1200 for the generator, tanks, siphon, tax, full tanks of gas in autos, etc. it would both allow me to sleep well AND be ready for the big one." For sure! That's a big thing!
I am sold on Honda. When you are in a hurry, or dealing with an emergency, and, as in my case, not necessarily one with the moods and attitudes of a small engine, you don't want to get into a long fight trying to get it started. Honda's are super good that way.
I was going to mention non-ethanol gas if you leave fuel in it for any length of time but I think we posted once before on that. So sorry for duplicating here.
Anyway, hope you guys out there stay out of the fire zone. I worked in San Diego for about 5 years and actually commuted from NM. Long story. But anyway, I showed up out there one week just after that last huge fire they had. I was horrified...amazing how fast those things can move through the brush and dry grass with those wicked fall winds you guys can get.
