I'd love to tell you all about it and what I learned but.......... not for this conversation. Suffice it to say, that 30kw generator saved our bacon (literally). And, many of my neighbors now have the same or similar.

Thank you Jimmy!! I couldn’t agree more but YOU are the reason I believe so much in the MEP. You have been the most knowledgeable and courteous. The generator performed exactly as you told me it would!!

I showed my wife a classified ad for an 804 with a cost of $5000, i told her we could sell hers, she said, “mine is worth more than that to me”

the worse we had it here is SW Louisiana was two weeks with out power, 100 degrees with 100% humidity and to make it worse than that the local EMT's Voluntary fire department got the MRE's and would make the people drive there three times a day to get a meal, one told me he did this so when 
the power was turned on and when the local people run out of gas they were going to keep the meals for them selves, now we a small community mostly farm country, we all know each other, someone called the Military and they sent troops with food and water enough for a week so you did not have to go three times a day and they stayed there until power came back on, needless the say the local voluntary department, get no help from the locals, so after that I got me an Onan 37.7 KW off eBay, 1,800 dollars delivered, told the fellow if it did not look like the picture and run the complete house (Total Electric) I would pay his gas for him to go home with it, worked just like the said, don't even effect it with the AC comes all with all the house running, grow a large garden so we good on food with wild game, she is real happy now.

yeah, my big green trucks, trailers, and generators are never welcomed UNLESS they need them to do something beneficial for them . when the projects are done, they want to get rid of the green stuff . I've told each wifey if the green stuff goes, so do I. Been there, done that , and not sorry
