I need to electrifry my shop. It will cost $$$ to run a new line from the

with it, plus some lights and basic tools. I don't want to buy minimal
size.
While driving from San Diego a couple of days ago, I saw some generators
that were basically running 24/7 lighting up some road billboards.
What brand of larger industrial duty generator would be a good one to watch
for? Any to stay away from? I'm thinking something like a four banger or
small diesel. Should be able to buy one in today's economy reasonable.

Somebody's prayers, but not likely SteveB's. Note
the small words :
Weight: 4630 lbs.
Guess what the shipping on that baby will be,
especially if it has to come from a good distance?
Looks like $15 K by the time you get it on your
property.
Oh, you also need a 120 AH, 900 CCA battery (sold
separately) for it. Adds new meaning to
"batteries not included"! That alone has to run
several hundred $.
Muffler sold separately? I wouldn't be surprised.

Nah, do their "Special order to store" and pickup yourself, so no extra
shipping charges, and since it's at the store, use the 15% coupon too...
