    Generator questions.

    Personally I would stay away from Generac. I have had many a frustration tracking down parts for customers. I would consider Onan for your operation. Onan has dealers all over N. America and parts are easier to get. However, if money is not a problem, find a Kubota dealer and get a Kubota...

    Gray Tools of Canada: offers new import line!

    Agreed with above! Grays biggest problem is availability to customers. I can only buy from several Gray dealers here and they most don't carry any stock. I can get Proto quicker here as well at KMS in Coquitlam and in Kamloops! Wright can be ordered through Lordco, but they don't stock. I...
