Don't know anything about the lance 1161 in particular but having just moved to AK, I bought one before we moved up. Cost here is ridiculous and not much selection at all. Less than I expected.
Price seems good to me unless there are some bad inherent issues as mentioned above.
Regarding the elect plug, make or buy an extension. Bought an extension + pigtail to plug in a trlr w camper attached for like $80, lower 48 though.
Ever been in a camper w a onboard generator? Not loud but I don't like the constant humm. Especially up here. Much rather plug in a gene 50' away and not hear it under my feet. IMO keep your 2k and use it.
