    Advice needed. Which genset for off grid?

    Well, we'll be between Willow and Wasilla, so its a 20 minute drive either way to town, but I get your point and its a valid one I assure you. I will have a minimum of two 50 gallon drums stored in the garage. My truck carries 90 gallons on its own. No, Im not betting my or my families lives...

    Heh, heh - I know from crazy. Everyone knows jumping out of a perfectly good aircraft is crazy. I'm like a little kid in a candy store here - so much to see and learn. Brings back a lot of memories too. Now I'm looking at all the nice trailers - the M1101 is calling me in particular. Im sure...

    And I must say its pure gold for information here! Did a google search, wound up here and was digging through the generator section and was hooked. As for me, Im retired Army (20yrs) - joined right out of High School back in '79. I live in Indiana, but will be moving to Alaska next year...
