Hi,

Nope mine lives in a storage box in the tow vehicle until needed. It's rather infrequent as I don't dry camp much of the year. I didn't get the gen box option when we ordered the rig as it took too much space away from the basement. The gen box also would act as an echo chamber to funnel sound into the rig and make it hard for the generator to stay cool in operation. I just put it next to the rig and chain it to the rig when I use it. Keep in mind that the generator has it's own fuel tank and it would be hard to refuel it in that small box in the trailer.

If I had the larger 3000 I would consider having a combination storage / run box on the tow vehicle. Less "stuff" in the rig means keeping it lighter since it has a limited cargo carrying capacity (CCC).
