Champion 7500 duel fuel

I'm interested in this generator and would like to hear if anyone has one or knows some one who does and if they like it, good and bad points. It looks like this would be the ticket if you would want to seriously boondock for periods of time.

Not sure if you'll much response since most RVers have inverter generators instead of open frame contractor-style generators, even for boondocking.

And are you sure you need that big and that loud of a generator?

At the drag races where we sometimes go, there are all kinds of generators running at the same time. Without any question the 7000-9000 watt generators are WAY louder, inverter or not. They completely drown out any sound coming from a open frame 3-4000 watt unit. Jay

At 74 db (1/4 load) you would be able to hear that one a mile away.
