Awesome thread........thanks to everyone, I finally pulled the trigger and got one! (I had been procrastinating on purchasing a generator, to be used primarily for home electrical backup) I bought the 46540 (RV ready) online from Advanced Auto Parts $329 (they price matched TSC's online listing of $289) plus 10% discount coupon; no taxes..shipping was $43. So, for ~$300 to my door, I'm pretty content!
Excellent double boxed packaging, no damage. Added gas & oil, one pull start. Voltage in specs and stable. Ran 5 hrs with ~1500-1800 watt load; loaded some additional items temporarily...the generator didn't seem to notice. I changed the oil and it should be ready for any upcoming ice storms or the tornado season here in Oklahoma.
I'm in the process of trying to read and digest this ENTIRE thread for more information about transfer switches, sound enclosures, and other mods.
Thanks again for all information!
How did you go about getting Parts America to price match? Did you call to place the order or do it online? Was the coupon you used the geicoten? Thanks for the help.
