Predator gennys?

Has anyone bought these gennys? Looking at 2 2000 watt units to power a/c when boondocking.

Black tank valve

We are on the road and my friend dumped his black tank, closed the valve and flushed then went to open the valve and it barely opened. Pulled and pulled and it would not open all the way. What could be wrong?

RE: Northern Nevada Peeps?

NamMedevac, Thanks for that. 50 to 95 was my first choice and I think I'll stay with it. How's the Mormon crickets around Elko?

Northern Nevada Peeps?

I'm going from Pollock Pines to Elko. What would you recommend, 50 to 580 to 80 or 50 to Alt. 95 to 80?

RE: best route, West to East?

I-70 thru Denver has the Eisenhower Tunnel climb and descent. I-80 has the EB climb over Donner Pass and the EB climb over Parley Summit east of Salt Lake City. all are very doable and there is a much easier bypass around Parley Summit.
we headed back to Chicago from San Jose in August of '21 using I-80 in our 40' class A gasser towing our Jeep SUV. the EB climb up Donner Pass was a lot easier than the WB descent a few months earlier. the RV's cruise control actually held a steady speed going up. and the EB descent from the summit was a total non-event. but in hindsight I should've taken the I-15 bypass for Parley Summit. we made it to the top but at a crawl.
a lot will depend on the weather, road conditions (construction delays, etc).what you're driving and your experience driving that vehicle. you might want to get a copy of the Mountain Driving Directory https://mountaindirectory.com/.
I have that book and it seems that there are afew more grades to climb on 70 than 80. Thoughts are US50 to Fallon then 95 to 80.

RE: best route, West to East?

80 : From Salt Lake City to Rock Springs will be the most mountains you deal with on 80. More trucks on 80 and pretty boring ride - long stretches of barren countryside. I get nervous when fuel starts getting below a half tank.
70: Don't know how you will get from NorCal to 70 because it starts at I-15. Much more mountains from there until you get through Denver. THat is another PIA for me.
Personally, I would run 80 even if it might be more boring and fewer potential fuel stops.
leaving from Placerville, would do US-50 thru Nevada then 70.
