Justin, one of your co-workers made an STT instuctor very happy...
From the STT board:
-----------------------------------------------
After having three different generators(one new and
two used ones) made in China, and all lasting a a maximum of 3 1/2 years, I
decided that after my latest one bit the dust at Road Atlanta I would buy a
quality generator. So, I set out on a search to find someone that sold Honda or
Yamaha generators at a great price. Obviously, the Honda and Yamaha brand are of
the highest quality and so the object of my search then became, where could I
find one at a great price. I started searching the internet.....google searches,
ebay, etc. Over on the WERA racing forum the name that kept coming up was a
fellow at Honda East Toledo that would work with you on pricing. I contacted the
salesman named Scott Johnson (Toledo East) and told him that I was looking for
pricing on the Honda EU 6500 or the Yamaha EF 6300 inverter style generators.
Without naming specific pricing, I can say that the Yamaha generator was just
what I was looking for.
The way the process worked was as smooth as
anything that I've bought on the internet and pricing was the best that I had
found in all of my searching. The generator was ordered with a $200 deposit, the
invoice of the deal was emailed to me and signed by Scott. I printed out and
signed the invoice, scanned it (you could also print it out and mail it back if
you didn't have a scanner) and sent it back to him. About a week later, the
generator came in and I sent the remaining balance to him and he made
arrangements to have the generator shipped to a trucking facility in my area
(Knoxville, TN). When the generator arrived at the dock, I went to pick it up
and brought it home. The generator was ready to go......battery installed and
charged, 1/4 tank of fuel in it, oil in the engine. Basically unpack it and
start it up and use it.
If you are looking for a generator, this IS the
place to buy from! Great customer service from Scott, plenty of emails to keep
you informed of what was going on, and a smooth transaction from start to
finish. So, here is the info about Honda East.

Shipping prices will certainly vary, depending on your location and
distance from Honda East, but I can say that even including the shipping cost, I
saved approx. $800 over retail cost of the generator. Plus, I live in a state
that they do NOT collect sales tax, saving me even more money. If you are in the
market for a new generator, this is the place to check out.
