Doc,
What did you finally settle on and how has it worked for you? After 3 years you should have some idea if it was the right choice. I haven't bought one yet but am looking at both gas and diesel in the 5500 to 8000 watt range. I'm putting stainless tool boxes under the length of the box and am limited to a generator of less than 24 inches high and wide. Length isn't an issue. Used stuff is non existent in our area. I'm looking at both Magnums and Generacs, either of which will fit and have good reviews.
One reason for the larger than needed size would be to help run our house in the event of a power outage.
