Jim -
this Onan is a two-year-old, virtually-new 4000-watt unit - i've got about
eight hours on it, max. It ran the Dodge's rooftop A/C, the TV/VCR, the
satellite receiver, and a 1300watt microwave, no problem whatsoever... as
for the weight - i don't recall off-hand, but it was certainly quite a bit
lighter than the Marvel fridge i muscled out of the Trailwind... and it has
a 'footprint' of about 24"x18"...
