    I lived in TX while I was stationed there for like 3 years. Exactly 0 people I’ve met there had a generator.

    I think that it’s a good idea to have a generator in places that get serious storms, and coastal Texas can get hurricanes. I don’t think that this is something specific to Texas’ power generation, which is what I think the parent commenter is complaining about. Florida, which really gets whacked with hurricanes, is somewhere I’d really want to have a generator.

      Texas is big. You have tornados in the north, hurricanes in the south, and a lot of nothin’ in the west. Some areas it makes sense to have a generator, but in many parts, it really doesn’t.
