Yes. I can see the "green virus" has infected you. Mine started with the purchase of a MEP-003. Soon they started multiplying. Now I have 8 generator units, three deuces, a CUCV, and a M105 trailer.
So far science has not found a cure for the "green virus" . So hang on. It is going to be a wild ride !
The only medicine(not a cure) for green virus is an unhappy wife....!!!It slows down the virus a little.

It's obviously way to late to save you, but just a warning to future generations: Military gensets are like Pringles, you can't have just one...

And it doesn't stop with the gensets.... nope, that's just the beginning. Next, you'll be buying fuel, fuel tanks, oil, filters, on and on. But, there are worse hobbies to have & the end result is shelter & comfort in a storm (or nuclear holocaust, whichever comes first...), so it could be a Lot worse :-D

Yep, its certainly addictive. Foolishly I thought I only needed 1 generator for the house. Three generators later and now my green generator virus flared up again recently! Noticed a distant neighbor was having a garage sale with some military items listed. I ended up buying a nice green trailer cover for my M116A2 plus two green 4-man crew tents that I never knew I needed...they just followed me home. Now that the virus is running rampant I'm starting to have visions of something green with 4 wheels and a steering wheel on it. Haven't shared that with wife yet, she is already worried that the green fever is running high :oops: and has affected my mind.

I’m already way over my head! Searching for a deuce to add to the collection. I’ve decided that CARC must stand for Chronically Addicted & Resistance ​Compromised!! rofl

Yes a wife can help slow the virus, but only for so long. Eventually the green fever gets so bad that something gives and then all H*LL breaks loose ! That's when I bought the first deuce !
