One of the best-rated generators for food truck use is this Honda Ultra-Quiet 7000i ES:

https://powerequipment.honda.ca/en/generators/work-industrial/models?trim=ultra_quiet_7000i_es_10447

Features

• Electronic Fuel Injection (reduces maintenance associated with carburetors and fuel storage issues).
• 7,000 Watts (45.8/22.9 A) 120/240 VAC of Honda inverter power.
• Super quiet—60 dB(A).
• Large capacity fuel tank, 19.2 L.
• Eco-Throttle™ standard—Runs up to 12.1 hours at 50% load on 19.2 L of fuel.
• Convenient electric start with push button switch (battery included) and recoil as back-up.

12.1 hours at 3.5kW = 42.35 kWh. (the 50% load per above)

42.35 kWh is 43% of an SRB truck’s battery, or 32% of an ERB truck’s battery.

19.2L of gasoline in the generator at $1.60/L = $30.72.

42.35 kWh of electricity at BC Hydro’s rate $0.15 per kWh = $6.35

Running off a Lightning’s PPOB costs 80% less than a gasoline generator!
