no further support and good luck getting parts.
Predator is interesting if you get the Protection Plan. No hassle replacement at the store, but then you have to buy another protection plan for the new generator.
OK, since I work at HF and I'm "The generator guy" (amongst pretty much all he sections) I feel I need to throw my $0.02 in here if it's not too late.
It used to be that the Honda was the standard by which all generators were compared, but over the last few years it's become the Predator that is "The Standard". That means something.
So, my professional advise, from owning 4 of them (2000w and 2500w) and selling them on a regular basis is...
Get the Champion! That propane is a really nice feature and the voltages don't lag as much as the Predator when you start pushing that running watts limit! Calling HF to order parts takes about an hour and a half on hold (ok, 1:22 on my cell phone) to get the parts ordered and then wait a week plus to get them. The Torch spark plugs are krap and almost never gapped right, and the rope LOVES to pull out of the handle on the first pull. Just get the Champion!
