Plenty of generators that are dual fuel out there. Last year I converted my Duramax to dual fuel by replacing the carburator. Easy-peasy.
gasoline has a shelf life, though with PG&E that isn't a problem :/but the larger issue is that i really would prefer not have a bunch of gasoline around. it's messier too in comparison to just switching a propane tank. we have like three or four 5 gallon tanks which we use in the mean time for bbq's, etc. we manage to run the things we need for about 24 hours on one tank.
