Those besides CM, tomorrow I will get the details on a huge business deal I have been working on. Possibly a very large increase in income. Keeping my fingers crossed.

I got mine used. Friend owned it and had not ran it in 3 years or so. Battery was dead and it would not start. Got it for $200 and a few favors.
New battery, pulled and cleaned the Carb, new plug and an oil change. Ran trouble free for 6 years. Guy that bought it still uses it.
Worth the money.

I'd have been open to buying a Honda if there were any available in the area when I was looking for a generator. I could still pick one up as a portable and sell the Generac for the simple fact that the Honda is much quieter and provides cleaner more stable power.

I might get one down the road...

I like to light up the electric oil lamps.

It just takes me back to my childhood, a fireplace in the winter, man I love the smell of a fire place, that's all we had until I was 16, no AC either. When the power went out we broke out the oil lamps. I love that smell too!

I still use a Honda tiller that my grandfather bought in Canada sometime in the early '70s. Hondas are great!

Yep. I finally make it back at 1:30 this morning...four days late. I will NEVER ride a train in the USA again. I have ridden trains in a lot of third world countries without issue. Amtrak is ridiculous.

 

[SEIndSAM]

Congrats for getting home JDM. Daughter was bugging me to take that trip some weekend, think I will pass.

Except their older outboards. They aren't that bad but Honda didn't acre that much about there outboards and were the last to go fuel injection. There 4 stroke carb models are cold blooded to say the least. Somewhere around 2005 they quit using manual chokes and went with an electronic choke that was worthless.
