I have a FS3400 Weekend Warrior and for two years it has been pretty good, Not saying it is the best, but for every brand out there I have had a buddy or someone they know complain about it. I know it is longer than you're wanting but as quality goes, I just took it in for service this week, still under it's two year bumper to bumper warranty. Fuel station fuse, and a water heater temp sensor control, not bad, It needs regular maintenance like anything else, also changed the batts because they were week. As for getting the gen, I say it is a definite must, you are already the guy loading and unloading and fixing tires and lighting fires and everything else camping requires you don't want to add dragging a heavy gen around, filling it with fuel, securing it, going out to start it, making sure it is not in a spot where it will annoy the neighbors. I watched a dad do that at Perris MX this weekend, anything to get you more riding and relaxing seems worth it to me. The gen on the Warrior is really quiet. As for the partition, my opinion is you will not like it, it makes a small trailer feel even smaller, claustrophobic really. Who rides and doesn't like the smell of gas? Since this is a pull behind trailer, I went with and recommend the Reese Dual Cam Sway control, keeps the trailer running straight in some pretty good wind and won't bend your bars on the tight turns. As for pulling in general, my buddies and I all started out thinking gas was ok but soon realized 3/4 ton diesels are the only way to go. When I do it again I am definitely going with a fifth wheel, more trailer to fit in the same size rv parking space and a better pull. As for purchasing, I went through the internet fleet manager for mine and his price was ridiculously low compared to the vultures at the lot. Good luck.
