Default Generator Purchase

I've been considering a Generac Purchase and we had the Representative out to our house. Very Impressed with the product but the Unit is very Pricey. Many of our neighbors have them and they are quiet and efficient.

I admit to having Analysis Paralysis in regard to purchasing a Portable unit. We would like to Power Most of the house but not all at the same time. I'm thinking a 10,000 Watt Unit and having it connected to the house by a Licensed Electrician.

I also like the idea of being able to use Gasoline or Propane.

A unit this large is extremely loud and when things are even quieter when the power is out killing my neighbors with the noise is a concern. We have a medical necessity to not be without electrical service for long. We could also help some neighbors who can't afford to do something like this.

The deals on Amazon today are Beautiful for several of the units I like. I would prefer to buy locally but Lowes/Home Depot don't sell large enough Duel Fuel Units.

So what I'm really looking for is any Good or Bad Experiences with any Portable Generator or Generac. Thanks in Advance. I know I waited too long to pull the trigger but better late than never.
