Generators - brand differences?
OK, our search for a used Class A is becoming narrower each day. After driving all over, I think that there are two fairly close to us that fit our needs and budget: The leader is: 2007 Damon Day...

Thanks,
Good to hear that most folks find the Generac Guardian units to at least be serviceable. I realize that their industrial power units are built to a whole different specification than their consumer power units are, that's why I mentioned that their top-line units are Cummins powered. I did forget to mention that I am partial to Cummins since we've owned a few in the trucks we use for hauling hay, cattle and equipment around our place. Still, those leased units pale in size to our emergency diesel generators that are rated for 10K hp and 7MW each!
I am also more inclined to buy the Winnebago based on their track record and the fact that they use a fiberglass roof vice the TPO on the Damon. I haven't had a chance to go through the Winnie yet, it just came on the lot this week. We have been through the Damon once before, and it is in great shape, but that's to be expected based on its little use.
Off to check out those units. Wish me luck.
BTW, what does "LCRA" stand for?
Propane RV generators - a device looking for a reason to exist (IMHO)......
