Tip to those thinking about getting a portable generator.

Plan ahead, or keep a 5 gallon can of gas full all the time. I keep one full with a little stabil in it, and every 4-6 months I dump it into the Jeep and go refill it.

Can't tell you how many people I know that have generators but don't keep gas for it, and then after the hurricane when even gas stations had no power for pumping, they were all in a panic.

I keep 5 gallons on hand and a siphon kit I can get fuel from our vehicles if need be.
