Picked up another Honda gennie....
Just days before we picked up our 23' Skamper TT, I found a Honda EU2000i generator for cheap on Craigslist. After hours on here and Google, I figured out that I could not likely power the 13,500 B...

The TT rear bumper doesn't seem to be much more than a slinky holder.
The spare is on there and I'm not sure THAT is a great idea. ha
I would have to have someone weld onto the frame at the rear and fashion some sort of mount for a rack.
So - I'm leaning towards selling the eu3000is and picking up a Companion model of the 2000. I can load those into the rear of the Blazer without much lower back pain and the caps seem to seal off all fumes.
I just don't know how loud 2 of them would be running all night in the Summer.
Of course, I hauled my 5500 Generac to a family boondock 2 weeks ago.
The 25' RV cord and a 30 amp extension cord got it away from the TT but I had no problem hearing it all night.
Compared to the Generac, a dozen Honda's would be better.
^^^^^^^^^^ I think I just talked myself into the second 2000 !
haha
Besides, we plan to only camp at CGs with full hookups unless boondocking on our own rural property or other family gatherings - again on private land.
Looks like I have an eu3000is for sale.
EDIT - Why didn't i think of just running the 2000 and the 3000 side by side to get a feel for what 2 x 2000's will sound like.
Duh ! (slaps self in forehead)
