My Pop's called me from Sam's club this morning and told me he was looking at getting us one for Christmas this year. I graciously told him not to and they don't need to get us anything. But he is insistant on one, and I sure wouldn't mind having one either. Here's the link to the one he was staring at earlier today Black Max 3,650 Watt Portable Gas Generator - Sam's Club

Although Black Max is typically known to have honda motors, this one has a homelite. No idea if this is a good'en or not, but 3650 watts will be plenty to keep my house warm and food cold should we need it this winter.

Anybody have a generator in the $300 price range that they would or wouldn't suggest? Can't find any reviews on this one.
