ok the first thought here is why do you need to have a generator..Is this for dry camping, like a nascar event,a rest area stop off the interstate travel, or to just have it for that sudden need of power..The demand of your 5er can be high from little power draws that add up, the Frig in ac mode,the water heat(use propane),power converter,lights and tv usage.....I have a 5,000 watt built in generator and can use both units, lights, tv and microwave all at once.But its just a little loud in mechanical noise/ exhaust is whisper quiet..Works great for rest stops,Nascar events and Mid-day AC usage if off grid camping,but Im kinda too loud if my camping site is to close to the next site..and its here that I limit its usage..when the weather is nice and I need a Generator for Battery charging,TV and lights and the 2,000w honda generator would be nice for they are whisper quiet except for the exhaust purring sound in the dead quietness of a NP campground....but remember the honda only puts out 1600w at full power with a surge of 2,000w..if its part of the deal take the honda gen or take an extra discount on the price of your camper an see how the unit works and its power demand plus your style of camping too!
