The point of a dual fuel is flexibility. Gasoline provides much more BTU's vs Propane dollar for dollar. It's just cheaper to use gasoline. However if gas is unavailable and in a pinch, your generator is useless. Having a dual fuel generator is worth the extra expense. Especially if you have a large buried propane tank you can tap into for backup fuel.
Also, none of these generators will power a heat pump or well pump. You'll need a minimum of 9,000 running watts for these, because the surge will cause the line to sag. Also, if your looking to power computer and home theater electronics, you must also consider the THD rating. Many of these lower priced generators have high a THD %, adding risk to damaging electronics. Using surge protectors will not prevent THD damage. Inverters typically have low THD, but they are more expensive and lower power compared to standard generators.
