Bought a 16k watt from Lowes for $4000, no interest for 2 years. Transfer switch is about $900, and I had someone install for about $900. We pre-wired our house for it, so I am not sure what the cost is for that. 16k watts runs everything in my house: 2 refrigerators, 1 deep freeze, 4 ton ac unit, washer and dryer, etc
It's probably not a "sound" investment, but I could afford it and it is peace of mind, especially when you have young children. I feel safe staying for most hurricanes at our house and I'd prefer to stick around with power rather than pack up the kids and evacuate.
