solid
heavy and durable. runs forever
i would like to see someone try to start this with the recoil rope, though. if someone can actually do it they should probably be in the olympics or barnum and bailey's circus
i tried it on fresh fuel and a hot engine ( right after shutting it down ), and there was NO CHANCE of this thing ever starting with the pull cord. keep the battery charged

Good quality. Operates as designed. My only complaint. The yammer diesel is alot louder than expected.

Solid unit
strong runner, love that it runs diesel. fuel tank is large enough to keep it running for a VERY long time, especially at lighter loads.
my only gripe is the pullstart. i would be willing to bet that Paul Bunyan himself would not be able to pull start this generator. Make sure the battery is charged.

Reliability
Just finished a 10 state tour delivering HighMont Beef to the western states and the Generac XD-5000-E ran perfectly.
We had it in a ventilated stock trailer and fuel consumption was minimal and performance was excellent. I do agree that noise level requires ear protection or a muffler but otherwise this generator did what I hoped it would. It ran four large freezers without fail.
Thank you Generac!
