I did not see a ground cable to your generator. These unknown units are particularly scary. Very likely could have ground fault. I certainly don't want to see you or anyone else being a ground rod. Stay safe.
Unit sounds good.
yes one stop shopping. Just don't show up at break time. :-) No trailer backing required. Big parking lot with all sorts of 18 wheelers coming and going.
You will be fine. OKC GL is a huge warehouse on west side of OKC. Your generators could be inside or in their lot to west of building. About halfway down the west side of the warehouse is their door, when you go inside there is a chain link fence that you will follow to the nice ladies that will...
If you bought them at OKC, which I think is case, you have to make appointment online well in advance and be sure you include all three gens on that pickup or you will not be able to pick up any not listed. Take in paperwork as directed. They will tell you where to pull and will load you out...
Hope they all run but realistically one will end up donor for other two. You did fine. Not likely any of use would wear a mid life unit the rest of the way out anyway. So those hours aren't bad and likely aren't accurate anyway.
3 phase does not have to be feared. It is actually more efficient. Just planning to balance loads and a 3 phase distribution. Power your house from A&B phase and run 120vac from distribution C phase
to garage to keep beer cold. Use an inductive load like an electric heater on C phase as load...

You are not going to want to put more than one in bed of 1/2ton truck. They are heavy 1000+lbs if I remember right. I don't believe 2 would fit volume wise anyway. My silverado definitely knew it was back there, especially when braking. Also cannot Sync these in true sense of the word. Only sync...
I have an 803 for my house which in current configuration is near all electric, gas heat. You will need to have some load management involvement. I went with 803 because 804 and up are 3ph units and really didn't need the extra capacity. I tried an 802 and it just required way to much load...
