Wow, edgy comment.
No, your statement is not true. I'm pretty sure they're not going to ban natural gas anytime soon. Besides the fact that a good portion of the country heats their homes with it, the country produces somewhere around 38% of its electricity with it. My utility ran new gas lines in an 80+ year old neighborhood two years ago, pretty sure they're confident in getting a return on that investment. As for gasoline, the automobile market is turning toward electrification, this is true. What's not true is gasoline being banned. Besides the installed base of ICE cars that will last for at least two more decades; boats, snowmobiles, lawn equipment, propeller aircraft, etc., etc. all still have an installed base that require gasoline for the foreseeable future. As far as I can tell, you can't run this generator on wood and the washing machine remark is kinda outta left field. Finally, you didn't mention propane, so I will, also not going anywhere anytime soon, with its installed base of forklifts, construction equipment, rural home heat, bbq grills, portable heaters and on and on. Do continue to live scared of minor, incremental progress in the world's fuel use though.
How is that a weakness...it's an 8000W generator, you can't get 50A from an 8000 running watts generator at 220V...basically Ohms law. You would need an 11000 running watts generator to get 50A.

Until government ban everything in the name of protecting you and saving the planet. Than we'll reduce to stealing wood to keep warm because government cannot police all the wood everywhere. Anyone still living is practically illegal.

The main panel at your house is either a 100amp or a 200amp breaker more than likely. When you do this back feed you will either feed into a 30amp or a 50amp breaker. I guess you could feed into a 120volt receptacle on maybe a 15amp to 20amp breaker but only roughly half of you receptacles in your home would work as only one side of your breaker panel would be powered...unless you use a double pole breaker...and don't think they make a 20amp double pole but I could be wrong. If you are planning to back feed you have to be careful and turn off the main breaker panel that feeds your house. If you aren't sure what you are doing this is not a good practice.

If you want to run your HVAC, you'll need 50amps at least.

Technically, momentarily, on gasoline, you can draw just over 40 amps on this generator, and over 30 amps running. Practically, it's a convenience item since larger generators like this one are often used to power larger RVs that have 50 amp inlets. It may be a factor if you intend to run this as a whole house generator for similar reasons. I don't understand why these manufacturers would produce a product that has the running capacity to overpower its primary output.

Just curious if anyone knows the answer, why is NG and LP always rated lower than traditional gas? If it's weaker combustion properties, wouldn't just an increase in pressure (e.g. more NG/LP pumped in) solve that? Just trying to wrap my head around it. If it's capable of higher wattage why is it limited when on NG/LP? Thanks in advance for any insight. I've always wanted to hook one up to my NG line for emergencies and have "unlimited fuel" but don't want to leave ~12+% capacity on the table.

Great insight. I suspect you can draw the full amount using multiple outputs but your point is still a valid one. Things like HVAC compressors have a massive draw on start that can use the extra amperage. (If you do use for home though highly recommend having a starting capacitor added to your HVAC to reduce the surge power required on start. Also just better for the longevity of your compressor regardless, even if on utility power.)
