I'm curious... how many decibals does the 6600 run?
Never mind, I looked it up. At 73-1/2 decibals, I don't want to be parked near your rig when you're running the generator.

Tom, I'd suggest that if you are going to be parking near other people, you find a generator that runs 65 dBA or less. Some campgrounds won't allow you to run a generator that is higher than 65.

We'll be boondocking nearly all the time after we retire and we've got our big generator (Kubota 7000) to do the heavy duty work like running our 220 Washer/Dryer and then we've got a Yamaha 2000 for those times we need to run the little A/C or the microwave or when it's cloudy and the solar panels aren't doing us much good.
