The Grand Ole discussion about generators
Jan 24, 2013, 12:50 PM

I've pretty much decided on the Yamaha 2000 over the Honda 2000 b/c of the fuel cutoff switch on the Yam's.
The question now is buy a used one on CL or go brand new?
I would think for something as important and expensive as a generator, might as well buck up and pay for the new one.
What say you?.....you degenerate tailgate generator queens?

You want a "generator" and not a "transvestite".

I bought online with no tax or freight and much lower retail than most advertise. If you want, I'll dig up where I got them from. Iirc, they sold yammies too.

$970 with no tax or shipping.
Can't beat that price, unless you go to Aero's pawn store.

They have a voluntary list with local LE that they

turn in on a daily basis reporting their new inventory. If an investigator is worth a crap, they reconcile every couple of days with the stuff from their cases. That's how I got some of my stuff back. Not all pawn shops do it, but most do. Dick's at the beach stopped doing the list the week after our break in. Effers.

If I ran a shop, I'd want it to go the other way around.

I'd want a list of all the stuff reported stolen so I could check.
