    Fuel line for portable generator/inverter

    Has anyone hooked up their (installed gas) fuel lines on a Vengeance in order to run a portable generator? My dealer instructed me to buy a nice portable instead of a permanent installation unit. The idea saved me $1,000's but now I need to set up for convenience. 2021 Vengeance V25 Rogue...

    Generator on when power is restored

    Hello Is there any danger if the power goes out, we engage the generator, then, while the generator is running, the power is restored? I am not sure if we need to unplug the power, while the generator is on. And if yes, how will we know when the power is restored. Thank you!
