When I first got the Honda 3000i, I used to take it with me when going to sites that I knew I had electric at. Pretty much all state parks.
After never needing it for the year I did that, and not taking it since and that's been about 8 years now and never losing power while I was camping, I'm glad to not haul that thing in and out out of the truck!
But, I will always fill the fresh water tank (only 30 gallons) when I know I've got water at a camp site.. Then I just use my tank water and don't even bother hooking up the hose.. I like my water much better than the water the parks provide anyway, so no big deal.
Anyway, if it's only a #54 2000w gen, take it along... My 3000 is over #150, so it stays in the garage, unless I know I won't have electric at the site I'm going to.
Just what works for me.. :)
