By the end of March in 2005, the national average for a gallon of gas was $1.93. In our area (Richmond, VA), gas had dipped to $1.39 a gallon in mid-February. But, the spring price run-up had begun and on March 2, 2005, gas stood at $1.69. Everyone was complaining because predictions of yet another $.25 increase by summer were common. It is all ancient history now - likely never to be repeated again.
Another event that quietly occurred on March 2, 2005, was the birth of the 3,000 Watt Chinese Generator Info thread. How could anyone predict that six years later it would still be an active thread? Some 9,277+ postings and over 755,980 views are associated with this thread. Unlike the $1.39 a gallon gas of 2005, the thread has perpetuated.
Many of the guys that were here when I posted the first question are still around. Others have disappeared, leaving us to wonder what their fate may be.

Over the past six years, the thread has taken on a character and life of its own.
Many thanks to Affinity Media for giving us the opportunity to exchange ideas, ask questions and make friends through the use of RV.net, Woodall's, Trailer Life, Camping Life, Motor Home, Camping World and perhaps even other portals.
Many thanks to our Moderators who have patiently monitored the thread and diligently worked to keep it's standards of conduct and content high.
HAPPY SIXTH BIRTHDAY!
P.S. I lurked on this thread for many months before I joined and posted a reply.
