Maybe, if I ever get around to learning how to post a pic here. Or you could just look at this to get a pretty good idea. You probably already know what a GMC P/U looks like. Now to get a Honda 2000 generator or two...

Very nice, i think everybody here needs to stop by for a visit.

When you get your eu2000's check out this web site,

http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/Honda_EU2000_Generators/

There is information on how to build your own parallel box, add extended run fuel tanks (using outboard motor portable tanks) and how to secure your new generators to your truck or camper. Lots of good information. I don't think The Gadget Man will have any trouble putting something together.

Congratulations OBG. Very nice setup. Be interested in seeing how you set up your generator(s).

There is a separate compartment in the nose of the thing, specially designed to build in a gen. Plenty of room for a carry around gen (or two), plus other goodies. The dealer had a 3500w gen, with a Honda engine, but the rest was something else, on sale for $395! We thought about buying it, since it would fit into that compartment, but once inside I would not be able to change the oil, just adding gas would be a chore, so we passed. No way this old dude with a bad back could lift it out for fueling/service...

OBG I see that you are in WY. If you are ever down in Cheyenne there is a guy that specializes in generators here in town. I will try to get you the guys name. I have had him work on everything from a little 550 Watt to a 2.5 KW generator. He can hook them up, service them and give you some great advise as to which generator would suit you individual needs. I will call my friend for his name and number and post it if you are interested.

I had to report to Jury Duty today (I forgot until Ms. Epirider reminded me at 0630 in the AM) and I was not able to get that number for you I will try tomorrow.
