    I got mine from Walmart and that’s where I’d get it to save a couple bucks; furthermore, I had my genny shipped to me because I got annoyed going out of my way trying to find one at Home Depot or Lowe’s just to find out they don’t have any lol heck the first one I bought online was out of stock and took a freakin week for some yahoo to come to that conclusion

    I’m lucky my fridge runs off a 12v haha no inverter; you should easily be able to find one for $500 and under, think it was James that posted the one for about $350 and I’d make sure it’s an inverter genny so that it doesn’t run at full capacity and waste fuel

    @Superhauler

    You run a timer on the block heater similar to something like this.?
    That way it's only drawing power for 2-3hours before you fire off in the cold.?

    Had about a ~40hr cold soak at ~17°f in OH last January. Detroit lit off eventually, but she ain't like it.. Had 100' extension cord with me, but no place to plug in within 100' of where I parked.. :rolleyes:

    Just don't pull a @farmerjohn64
    Who bumped their head now.!? Lmao 1 gallon at a time!! :biggrin_25526:

    Buy a 5gallon can!!

    Also I'm sure you've seen it, but some of the Pilots & J's have RV pumps that sell diesel & unleaded. Can maybe sneak your truck through one of them if you don't want to walk.. Maybe.. I used to run my 65' hotshot through an rv lane with ease if the fuel islands were all jacked up..
