My 2KW Honda is secured to tailgate corner of my truck bed. I have one of those lockable hard folding panels cover for my truck bed.. All is locked up plus the generator has a lock cable secured to the wall of the truck bed. All is out of sight...
This was the best place for my generator to be... The trailer cord fits just fine and allows me to have the generator for other uses...
My truck has a bunch of ham radio equipment in it so the generator comes in real handy when I run the truck start battery down...
I just plug my 10AMP smart mode battery charger into the generator and gets me going in a couple of minutes.
Being in the bed of the truck is great for powering up a couple of long cords for the house when the power goes off...
My 2KW generator was purchased back in 2009 I think it was and it still starts on first or second pull on the cord. I think the movement in the back of the truck keep the gas from building up in the tank...
