2004 Generac Diesel generator. Any good?

I’m looking at a coach with a generac diesel. Is it as good as the Oman? Are parts still available?
  • We had one in our '03, we were very happy with it.

    Generac is still going strong in the generator business, and I believe it was a small Cat diesel running it. Obviously Cat is still going and has a great history of product support. With that said, I would suspect parts wouldn't be an issue.

    Generac is out of the RV Generator Business.. I have a gasoline Generac and some parts are still available for it but not all from what I have been told. Generac will refer you to a parts house that may or may not have parts. They didn't have what I needed but I found a RV dealership that could repair my generator.
  • The Generac 7500 D in our 06 Alfa See Ya blew the rotor and stator. Generac does not provide those parts anymore. So, it has to be replaced

    Sorry to hear. I was afraid of that
  • A motor rewind shop can repair a rotor and/or stator. I had to repair the Onan rotor on my previous rig (97 Winne Vectra) after mice made a nest inside and it was less than half the cost of a replacement.
