There are pro's and con's with every solution. I have a Honda 3000, pro's: very quiet, portable and can use around farm if you remember you have it. (was building deck and power went out, I packed up all my tools then remember I had it).Con's very heavy. If you want to go portable I would go with qty 2 honda 2000's and run the parallel cable. If you aren't using the micro or AC you can just haul one. Neighbor has a built in Onan. It is not fuel injected and carb needs to be cleaned. He is not mechanical, so to get it fixed he has to haul his whole trailer in. He wishes he had a portable one.I am happy with my Honda, the internal battery needs to be replaced but I can pull start with one pull.Good Luck in your decisions.
Thankfully my husband is mechanically enclined. Which is also why he knows the problems we could have. Hopefully not many as he doesn't travel with me
