A few generator questions from someone(me) who knows little/nothing about them.
How does one go about determining the 'right price' for a used planta?
Specifically, in this case, a friend is looking at a 2009 Caterpillar 45kw diesel planta.
Asking price is US$11,500.
Also, any idea how many gallons an hour it's likely to use at say a 75% load. We searched some random specs for similar size generators online and it would appear close to 4 gallons an hour.
And finally, if you yourself were in the market - who would you go to? North coast/Puerto Plata area, preferably. But Santiago or further away if there's logic behind going that far.
