Received this answer from Pep Boys customer service about the Elim 3000: "At the present moment, we do not have any generators available and we apologize for the inconvenience. However, we are currently waiting on a shipment from a different manufacturer. We hope to receive the generators within the next 3 to 4 weeks. The product will be the same price, with the exception of the manufacturer brand."
Unfortunately while my question was specific to the Eliminator, I am not sure if the answer refers to the Eliminator, the Nikota (company assets sold last Friday in auction), or the Coleman (3750 rating from a 5.5 hp Briggs. No db rating but I found an "85 db" notation on a similar model. Muffler does seem small. Anyone know ?)
In the meantime anyone who manages to find a Eliminator 3000 even at $279 may still be eligable for the $20 rebate listed on page 4 of the current Pep Boys rebate book (PB050301). The following link may work: https://clients.gfsinc.com/graphics/forms/017586f.pdf
Meanwhile, does anyone know if the Harbor Freight 91523-2VGA is imported by Elim - appears to be similar to the ELM3000L but has a lower rating (2800 peak/2600 continuous). Same 6.5 hp engine rating but the 168F-1 seems to be a common Chinese engine.
