I know that TonyWilliams is not reading my posts so someone else should ask him what exhaust emissions regulations US National Parks have (because there are none). It's true they need to have mufflers that catch sparks, but can you name a generator that doesn't? And lastly noise is subjective and according to the NPS they will not pull out a decibel meter unless there's an event going on, they will ask you to turn off your generator if it's causing a disturbance no matter how many decibels it is or isn't making.
Also someone should point out to him that although the Nissan Leaf looks like a small car, it is actually almost 3,400lbs. For comparison a Nissan Versa is 2,400lbs and a Mazda2 is 2,300lbs. A class II hitch is a good match for the Leaf and can support up to 350lbs tongue weight, plenty for his overpriced Honda generator, or enough for my generator and 100lbs of other stuff (and $3000 in your pocket!) and all well within the Leaf's 4,200lbs GVWR.
And although most Californians see themselves as the center of the universe, it should be pointed out to him that CARB rules don't affect the other 49 states...and yes the generator I linked to has a CARB compliant version for only $100 extra.
