Will Viking Solutions SwiveLift Work with a Honda EU7000 Generator and 2012 Ford Expedition
Question:
Will the work with my tow vehicle and lift the generator into the back of the truck? Thanks!

Expert Reply:
It looks like your Honda EU7000 can potentially weigh 261 pounds dry. The specs I saw state it has a 5.1 gallon gas capacity which would add another 32 pounds for a total of 293 pounds. The Viking Solutions SwiveLift Loading System # 310-VSL001 is rated for 300 pounds so the fully gassed up generator is just under the capacity for this system.
The carrier has 20 inches of travel and can get things up into a truck bed so I am sure it will have enough travel to get your generator into your Expedition. The only thing that might be an issue is swiveling the generator and not bumping into the vehicle body. The Expedition is pretty wide though so I don't anticipate a problem.
