Champion Generator 3500W, anyone using one?

I know it's a little big for the teardrop but the specs look really good and it has got some really good reviews on rv.net. I found them online for $299 and free shipping. Thanks.

edit: The shipping was free for items under 20 lbs. It's costing me $42 to ship, still not bad.

Check out this thread for the 1200W one I got. The only bad thing I can add after having it for a few months is that it leeks a little oil.

Thanks. If that's the only problem I'd say it was a good choice.

Ordered one last night and it should be here on Tuesday.

Test ran the generator today. It kept the trailer pretty frosty with the 5000 btu window unit and barely stumbled when I kicked the compressor on. As far as noise level it was slightly quieter than the 6500 watt Honda I was next to last weekend and very much louder than the 2000 watt Honda another friend had. All in all I'd say for $340 shipped it's a great generator. Time will tell how it holds up.

Good luck with the new toy. Check out my album for how I mounted it's little bro.
