Sounds ridiculous to me....

We have a 12kw GE generator that was purchased through Home Depot. With the whole house transfer switch I paid $3k delivered. This was a few years ago. My electrician was $1400, and that was with my generator being a long distance from the home, so there was a lot of wire involved.

Home Depot sells a 13kw now for $3299 with the switch, shipped.

They have 2 options for Kohlers as well, $3600-3700. Here is one of them:

My GE has been great. No issues whatsoever. I use Philbricks Generator Service to do my annual with protection plan for $295.
