I have always wondered why some B company doesn't offer something like this as an option.

Compare that price listed to this: Roadtrek shows the cost of the optional generator to be $4,693. I assume that is still the Onan 2800 and they offer the "under the hood" model for $3900+.
Obviously, the Honda would require some alteration as to fuel supply. Personally, I would just as soon pour in a little gas to the Honda than pay the difference. Of course, the quoted price on the Honda is out of the box and the Roadtrek quote is installed. Still??
The difference in the db output of the two units is more than significant. Some trailer folks are building platforms on the rear bumper and securing these Hondas on the rear. Many of us can come up with a lot of creativity for the difference in price, reliability and sound. If I were buying a used B without a generator, I darn sure would not hesitate to rig up something with one of these Hondas. Other manufacturers make similar inverter units at even cheaper prices.
