Champion 4000 watt generator

Another thing to think of when getting a generator is the noise. The EU series although more expensive, but I am sure out live an off brand and be way more quite. When I run both of mine (EU2000's linked together to give 4000 watts) at the same time, you can't hear them (I put them about 30ft away) If I am going somewhere I know I am going to run only a generator I will then bring the 6500. This is also a Honda. By no means am I saying that the Champion is not a good unit. I have not looked into it. But you will have the Honda (just my choice) for many years of trouble free power. I have had my EU2000's for 5 years trouble free and the 6500 for about 10 and it will fire up every time. I live in Florida so you need power just in case Mr. hurricane stops by. This is just my 2 cents.
