Quiet is overrated. First of all my experience is those with the so called "quiet" generators seem to think they can run them anytime they want regardless of the posted hours.
First of all, Quiet is always better. No one wants to hear a loud, noxious generator reverberating throughout the campground whether inside or outside operation hours. And I have not personally heard any genny running outside the posted hours for very long. Usually it is just an oversight by a wayward camper. Grouping us quiet genny users as inconsiderate is absurd. Sounds like you have "Quiet Genny Envy".
Before I turn mine on I go to my neighbors and tell them I am going to run my generator and apologize for the noise.
I don't feel a need to ask permission as most are aware of the operation hours. Also, most won't hear my genny purring along while my batteries charge as I point the exhaust away from any campsites.
I paid about $600 at CW on sale.
An extra $400 would've bought you a campground friendly Honda.
