I am waiting for my THIRD generator from Parts America. I had called for a refund after the second one arrived heavily damaged, but they were willing to send another before refunding my money. Unfortately, no one sells the unit within a 4 hour drive. Somewhere way back in the pages of this thread I think I remember reading that the units once had L brackets that needed to be removed before operation. Neither of the damaged generators had the brackets installed and I believe the brackets would have prevented much of the damage have experienced.
If the one to be delivered this week is damaged too I am going to get a refund and just wait until my next road trip to see my sister in W Va. and find one there. UPS is also the outfit delivering, and I believe damaging the gensets. I will give you an update when it is delivered this later week.
