Any Predator Generator reviews?
Now when my build-in Generac died and even new $350 board is not fixing it, I am researching more reasonable option. $500 inverter generator have excelent reviews and some say it runs smaller AC jus...

Haha...you can get away with that in Michigan. You can always add layers to survive in the cold, but there's only so much you can take off to stay cool if it's hot. Last week the high temps here in the Mojave were never lower than 116 over a 5 day stretch, overnight "lows" in the high 80s. Today I was out loading my TC on the truck. Inside the TC it's 125, outside its 109. To provision the TC here you got to cool it down and keep it that way the minute you load your foodstuffs in. If you want to do anything consistently in the desert SW over the summer, you'll have an a/c, even if you plan to camp at 8,000 msl or above.
Just food for thought.
And my "3600 rpm screamer" is insurance against losing the house contents in the refrigerator/freezer and can simultaneously power a 5000 watt window shaker for the small room in the basement if a catastrophe were to occur here in the summer (i.e major power outage). We don't camp with it, nor would I recommend it for the reasons you describe.
I've contemplated getting a roof ac unit. my camper is already wired for one... if I went out west in the summer probably would be a must have. Certainly a high efficiency unit and that would give me an excuse to buy another 2000 watt Champion and parallel kit.
I confess, I paid nothing for my current Champion 2000 watt unit. I bought it entirely with Cabelas points. I use my Cabelas card for all my business purchases. At a point per buck spent, I can crank up some serious points in no time. I have my eye on a bass boat right now.
Now, if Cabelas had rooftop ac's for RV's, I'd be tempted.
Maybe Marcus should have bought Cabelas instead of Gander Mountain.:S
