[QUOTE="Wild and Free, post: 58773, member: 406"] If you dig into them and research reliability and repair the Yamaha is much better than Honda, roughly the same noise level but the Yamaha engine is repairable, the Honda engines are throw away and the Yamaha is supposed to be a much longer lived engine as well plus they have a slightly larger fuel tank. I have talked to several folks who went with Yamaha after digging into the details versus just the name. I just throw my 6500 watt generac into the bed and let her bellar at the campground along with all the others now since every single person in the "PRIMITIVE" camp areas seem to need several generators running all day long even when they leave @ 6am and return @ midnight. I tend to aim my exhaust at them and fire it up about the time they get back and keep my ac running all night. 2K watts will fire up the newer ac units with soft start capacitors but will not start up the older ones, they draw too many amps at start up for a 2k watt generator.
