And what good does a portable solar generator do you when it's night,
20F outside and you need to run the furnace, hot water, etc? Or
you need it at a job and it's cloudy? WTF?


There is a perfectly viable generator in every driveway, sufficient
at least to run a fridge every couple of hours, and you can listen
to the radio as the same time. Might even be sufficient to run the
air handler in a gas furnace, depending on furnace size.

Get a quality 1000W 12 volt inverter and use your car/truck as an emergency
generator. Large, mobile tank of fuel, far more fuel efficient than
typical portable generators. Useful in an emergency, and relatively
inexpensive.
Actually you need to check your facts. Running your car is NOT more
fuel efficient than most portable generators. At idle they (most) can
not keep up with a 1500 watt inverter - may keep up with 1000.
Also fuel burn at idle is better than .6 gallons per hour per liter
displacement. That is about 2 GPH for a 3.3 liter car idling with no
load.
A 5kw gasoline portable generator burns about .75 GPH
