It's the same as the champion 3500 weekender it was on sale for $300 just has some green paint and the cabelas name on it. I picked that one because of the great reviews of the champion but figured with the word cabelas on it if something not covered by warranty it would be more likely cabelas would take care of me.

I do plan to use this trailer throughout the summer for search & rescue, spring bear season and maybe a couple family outings. So as long as I was buying a generator I figured I should get one that will run it all if needed. Thanks for the help everyone

If I may make a suggestion. I have the Champion version of the 3500/4000. The Cabelas version you ordered is a 240v/120v version and the newer 120v only versions have a much cleaner output than the older version. So if you can switch, it may do better for you.

Other than that, the 3500/4000 will do you well. it has the power to run our AC at altitude which the other options listed here just can't. Sound wise I'm told it is compatible to two 2000w inverter units in parallel running a AC. We picked up the remote start version on sale for $425 and it sure is nice not having to go out and fire it up and plug in every time. They do make a sound tent for them that will knock some of the noise off but I never got one since we don't camp around others.
