Honda genny won't fit

[Hardcandy]

I just bought a Honda 3000is I've read about you guys putting them in the bed of you trucks, my problem is I have a hard Tri fold tonneau cover and the Honda is to tall to fit under the cover. My plan was to leave the genny in the truck all the time under the cover. So I'm open to any helpful ideas I'm sure I'm not the first to run into this please help.if I have to put it in the basement of my 5er it will have to be a permanent deal because I'm not able to put in in and out so I'm open to ideas on that as well. And yes it does fit in the basement. Thanks for your input.

I keep mine in the truck bed with my tonneau cover halfway and lock the generator with bike chain. I've never had a problem.

Unless you want to be overcome with carbon monoxide and die in your sleep, using a portable genny in your 5'er's basement is a most, MOST, BAD IDEA!!!:E Either leave the bed cover off/open or have a permanent Onan/Cummins RV genset installed in your 5'er.

Happy camping!!! See y'all down the road!!!:)
