Yamaha dealer in Missoula?

I will be dry camping in the Salmon ID area and passing through Missoula MT en route from Canada. As I need a generator I figure I could save about 1/3 the cost by buying in the US vs Canada. Is there a Yamaha dealer in Missoula someone could recommend for purchase?

    May or may not save money.....We used to buy in Oregon to save money with no sales tax, but NO more. The merchants in OR jacked their prices to a point that it is now cheaper to buy in Idaho and pay the tax........
  • Thanks for each of your suggestions. I will explore these further.
  • Great Falls Big Sky Power is one of the dealers that many Canadian's deal with (ya, I know it's 100+ miles, but it is a straight run north to Red Deer from there)
  • I don't know about MT, but in ID, a Yamaha dealer sells any Yamaha product, from ATVs to generators. Our dealer, Snake River Yamaha in Boise/Meridian had some very good prices on Yamaha generators this spring. Just look up the local Yamaha dealer and call them for a price. Here is a Link to the Yamaha dealers on your route and again, I would pick a dealer or two and call.
  • Suggest that you get on the Yamaha generator web site and locate a dealer in that area. I believe the Zip code for Missoula is 57701, but not real sure. If there's not a dealer in Missoula, then try Kalispell or Hamilton.
