Hey everyone, just curious about what’s the toughest, most reliable generator you’ve ever worked with? I’m talking about the kind that takes a beating on the job site and keeps running no matter what. Looking for solid recommendations or any personal stories where a generator really saved the day!
 
Hands down, the Honda EB10000 has been a beast on every site I’ve used it with 10,000 watts, GFCI protection, runs all day without a hiccup, and shrugs off dust, rain, and rough handling. I’ve seen one survive a drop off a trailer and still power up like nothing happened. Kohler diesel units are tanks too if you're looking for serious long-haul power. Reliability-wise, those two are hard to beat in the field.
 
That’s awesome to hear about the Honda EB10000, those things really are tanks! Anyone tried the newer inverter models on tough job sites? Curious if they hold up as well or if the classics are still king.
 
The EB10000 is a legend for a reason! I've also had great luck with older Generac units, they’re not pretty, but they just keep going. Anyone here used a CAT generator under rough weather? Curious how they stack up durability-wise.
 
The EB10000 definitely has a reputation, but I’ve seen some CAT diesel gens take serious punishment and still run like champs, especially in freezing temps and muddy sites. Has anyone tested the new hybrid or solar-assisted generators yet? Curious if they’re catching up in durability or still just niche options.
