From Dexter, Mo. to Vancouver, Wa. we saw only one GMC. Last Wednesday on 30 headed south of Pocatello. Could not believe it was the only one rolling.

Still looking for the "right" GMC. Located one in the LA basin thatI will see
this Friday, but the owners have removed the Onan (they said it was a boat
anchor...) I was thinking that running a never generator might be a better way
to go. Anybody out there do such a conversion to their rigs? If so, what did
you swap in and are you happy with the results?

Hi ,

If 'never' was supposed to be 'newer' ... then yes .. the Honda ev 6010 is a
great performer . Not quite a 'bolt-in' but easy enough for most .

I replaced an leaky Onan with over 8000 hrs on it with a Generac Quiet
Pac 50.
Good unit and good results.

Dan,

The GMC's are out there. You're just on the wrong hiways traveling too fast.

We are in Wayne's coach on the way to New York. Spent last Thursday night in Boardman, Ore. and then went on to Pendleton (my needed a Lewis and Clark Bi-centennial blanket) and then up to Couer d'alene for Friday night.

We missed you by a day or so. Liked your pictures from Umatilla.

I haven't seen any other GMC's either.
