the family has decided to buy a 3-fuel (propane, gasoline-benzine, natural gas)
generator and their consensus is a yamaha 12kw unit

can someone send some recommendations for online store (USA) where you've had or heard
of good experiences in buying, paying and shipping

on ebay these units run about 3900 dollars but some places charge hundreds more

First I would not get a tri fuel generator. I am not that good at changing
stuff like carburetors.
Where in the world are you going to get massive quantities of benzine?

Natural gas/ propane makes some sense. Unless of course the natural gas line
is not pressured.
Propane has issues with elevation and the amount of hp you can get. Propane
gennys are rated less output than gas or diesel for the same motor.

Keep in mind that your purchasing something that must be taken care of with
in your means and skill set.

Google is your friend.
