Propane versus gasoline generator
Do propane generators suffer from the same problems as gasoline ones, namely the dried up laquer problem in the carb and jets? Isn't it a no brainer to have a propane generator since then you share...

I purchased the Champion "Dual Fuel" 3500 watt inverter/generator when I bought my 5'r last November. Having a choice of fuels takes away that "not able to find LPG issue.
My 5'r has 2 30lb tanks and I bought 2 spare 30 lb'rs to use for backup, genny, camp stove and fire pit. So far I've only run the genny on LPG and have camped up to 5 days/nights on 1 of the 30 lb tanks while tee'd to the outdoor camp stove.
My truck is diesel so having emergency for the TV is a NA for me.
Also in my case, LPG is cheap since I get a $0.90 per/gal discount from my home LPG provider.
So for me, LPG is my first choice, but I still have the option to buy gasoline if it was the only thing available.
