    That's what she said.... Go with 2500 and the cost installed will be dependent on the Inverter you choose.

    1500 watts will do what you need..Always has for me..At my other company, I ran a microwave, a dorm fridge/freezer and my tv off of it, but sometimes I wish I had a 2500 watt just because lol...Go bigger if you can, but in reality a 1500 will do.

    EW - Would you mind sharing the numbers on your truck? What kind of deal did you get? Down payment, weekly payments, etc...

    My pockets arent that deep right now bud and I'd never consider a cheap truck stop inverter

    I'm gonna see if master fleet has a 2500 i can get before i leave if not im gonna look around once i get back to Maryland. I really don't want to be without my microwave leaving here.

    They have a 1500 that they can install in a few hour for 450, that would work as long as i dont try to run the mic and tv at the sAME time.

    Sadwar im Gonna go back and find that page on his thread.

    Ofcourse I will

    So as you all know i got the KW T680


    [​IMG]



    I put down the 5k which didn't go toward reducing my payments they put it into a program they are matching my 5k so at lease end it'll lower my balloon by 10k down to 55k at the end of three years.

    My weekly payments are as follows
    803 Truck
    135 Maint Acct
    107 Physical Damage
    35 Occupational Acc
    8 Bobtail
    6 Loan Gap
    4 Physical Damage Buyback
    2 Personal Property Insurance

    So roughly 1100 as long as it was under 1150 i was happy that number is rounded i think its like 1108 or something.

    I also got 1400 to my maint account and a 500 lease on along with two payment vouchers
