[montanasledder]

my dad had the 300 honda nand it would not run his AC, he ended up going with 2 2000 honda's. pickybacked. spendy but works well and only need to run one majority of the time

LOL. Most campgrounds dont allow you to run generator all night.So I guess it depends where you are camping and with who to what kind of generator you buy.

Same here...

Go to your local Schucks and pick up a Champion 4000w for $299.00. It will run your ac unit with the microwave running and the stereo blasting. I've been using one for 6 years now, it works awsome.

Works real well for us.

Most of the provincial campgrounds around here (as far as I know) all have electricity and therefore I don't think I would have a need for the generator there. This would be moreso for loading up the quads, heading down a mountain road and spending a week away from everyone. Having said that, I think the quiet ones are still worthwile as you never know when you might need it.
Thanks for all the replies so far.

How much of an impact does elevation have on output?

Instead of buying a Japanese Gen you could buy a Cummins ONAN GENSET. Work really well and dont burn much fuel. Also they are really quiet. http://www.cumminsonan.com/rv/products/gasoline

In Montana we dont go to campgrounds, The improved campgrounds are for tourists we go park in a field and make our own.

It's not camping if you need a generator, haha. Sleep outdoors in a tent.
