Hey there Greg,
The trip was awesome. I'm sorting through about 260 pictures! I stayed at Guale 2 for 2 days and still couldn't get enough of it. Except for the 1st night there (it snowed) the weather was sunny and just a little chill in the air. Friday night I hit La Kiva and that was an experience in itself. The crew there is quite the colorful bunch! Saturday I hit the National Park for 5 days. I'll probably start posting a few pictures of the trip tomorrow.
Ric

How did you get that in Cammo?
Did you paint it?
That's the way to do it since our Red 1000 and 2000 just sticks out..

Speedway has the camo colored EU2000's, but they are $1050.
I wonder how much the plastic covers are? Would like to get rid of the red color - it identifies it a Honda and makes more likely to be stolen. Next is some plastic safe paint.

Sweet!
I was thinking of painting it but trying some vinyl adhesive sheets from Camoclad: www.camoclad.com
This is the pattern I picked:

I had to install "The Clapper" on it just in case I set it out in the weeds and couldn't find it. 
I have a buddy that works at Camping World and they just recently started to carry the Camo design. With his discounts and pulling a few strings I got it for right at a grand. Original price was 1200.00 I have the generator box on my Aluminess bumper but I need to find a way to make the generator fit real snug in there so it won't bounce around. I just got back from week of camping and it rode right behind the passenger seat the whole time.
