The difference is that a generator you might use every two years is likely to fail when you need it unless you carefully maintain it regularly.
You use your car every day, you’ll notice if it breaks and take care of it immediately.
My generator tests itself once a week, automatically cuts over during an outage, and costs ~$200 a year for scheduled maintenance that I can’t be arsed to do anymore at this stage of my life. Generators don’t have to be a huge headache.
How much did you pay for a fancy generator like that?
