Anyone know of a place to buy a 10 k generator in Memphis, Tn?

Depends on what you want try Nixon or Mid South Cummins there is also a place in Hendersonville that sell and services generators

good luck

We have had a lot of trouble with the power tech we have and it now has some major issues. Would like to find a good one that will hold up to a lot of use. We are in Memphis right now, and it is too hot to be with out. Trying to find one in the area.

Really wanted to buy one from engine power source, but we are pretty desperate too in this heat.

rental unit plugged into your shore power???till you get one....stay cool

Ruthi, just my 2 cents worth but the way you travel and work I would buy a Onan they have the best service network of any on the market and they are not a bad generator plus most Cummins dealers are open till midnight everyday with a good parts department for Onans

good luck

Hi Ruthi - please continue to keep us posted if you can!! Any luck w/ the suggestion by James77MCI8 and luvrbus on the Onan/ cummins?

Kind Regards, Phil

Thank you for the suggestions, Ken is trying to locate one as we speak. I will let yall know.

Oh, and just a side note, to stick the knife in deeper, one of the air conditioners went out. Ken knows what is wrong with it, but no one will sell him parts without a liscense. $:-\$

You are right. Winter we will be in the new bus, we will see how that goes. WE dont have cold that bad, but we sure have the heat. Temperature rises real fast when the power goes out.

robertglines1 · June 23, 2010, 09:42:35 AM

are you going to be there rest of week?if so what you need....diesel gen set or gas....parts?

Busted Knuckle · June 23, 2010, 10:00:27 AM

Ruthi,
We are minutes off exit 108 on I-40 if there is anything we can help with. It's a busy time for us, but I'll do what I can.

Also Hendersonville is a suburb of Nashville. FWIW

Thanks for the offers. I dont know what is needed. We have a power tech, it is leaking oil like crazy, and every so often it blows smoke and bogs down. Timing sucks, we are in the process of painting new bus, lots of money, and the central air in the house just went out, and had to replace, again, big money, and now this, oyyyy. Roof air needs a part. Wont be home til not this sat. but the next saturday. Dont know if it will keep running. I thought it was a 10k but hubby says it s a 12k powertech. Probably needs parts.
Any one has ideas can call him at four 78 four 56 three 3 56.
