They are having a special promotion, buy 10 cups of coffee and get a free generator.

Coleman POS generator yap I had one and man are they loud
paid 500 bucks for it then one day was at home depot and saw a generac 7550 exl running watts 7550 surge 13000
automotive oil filter and oil pump with an Electric start
for 600 bucks On the net they were running about 2.500 bucks ao I asked if thatr was the right price when I was told it was I bought it right there and sold the pos Coleman the Generac is a much better unit
Have it in a insulated shed and with the door partly closed the nose is not bad at all
Will run about 10 hours on a tank of gas
the best part is the Electric start pulling the rope on a 13 hp motor will tried you out quick

3 days without power but I'm back. 75 MPH winds and many inches of rain. I hope the worst is over. There is more rain to come.

Went to Home Depot..They had one 7500 watt setup and a nice 13000 watt unit that runs on propane and automatically starts when power goes out. 3100.000 though. Went home, took the POS Coleman apart and found the stator had rusted...Sanded off the rust and the POS is no longer a POS.
