Re: M35, what next for longer bed?

Instead of going with a longer bed to fit a diesel generator in front,
why not go with a PTO driven generator and just run the truck engine
when you need the power. 10-15 KW generators with low speed 540 rpm
inputs are commonly used as PTO devices from farm tractors. You could
mount the generator underneath the truck, so it would be out of view and
put the switchgear up above. From previous posts I believe that the
multifuel engines draw about 1 gph when idling.

Anyway, this is just an idea that came to mind.
