    I'm killer on the Bar-B-Q no doubt. Talk to me about the generator. Is it a Honda?
    If Billy Idol or John Denver is on your Ipod go and re-evaluate your life.

    Troy built with B&S motor, 5.5kW running, 8kW surge, detachable gas tank, and a hand truck cairraige frame.

    It may not be a Honda, but I like it. Fires up every time.

    Well if it fires up that is half the battle. On second thought that is all the battle.

    True, what I really like is the frame. most portable gennys have a handle on the front and you have to lift the weight to move it.

    This one, you just wheel around like a hand truck/dolly, a lot easier.

    Yep, it has quick connects so you can pop it off and take it to the gas station real easy.

    That was another reason I picked that model.

    Found a pic. The tank is plastic and mounted on top for quick removal. The advantage is that you fill it and your spares up all at the same time when stocking up.

    It also came with a 30A Leviton twist lock plug connector, a $50 item.

    Bob, those are some great pictures. Thanks for sharing them, that's the kind of stuff most of us would rarely see if ever. I always like seeing the pictures posted here. Rolling that stuff up looks like back breaking fun.
