Now the problem is finding a plug for 220, not one within a hundred
miles from what I can see and we even went to plumbing supply houses,
etc... But we got it now and by the time the winter rolls in we should
be all set and running... Next step is to install the wood stove we have
as a backup..

You can't find an L14-30 P?
Amazing, any electrical supply should have them but so do
HD/Lowes/Ace.

Most generators come with a pigtail that has a bunch of 5-15s on a
cord with the L14-30 P

Apparently you don't realize the scope of this thing. We are driving
miles for gas then waiting an hour or more in line. There is not one of
these things to be found (got one from a buddy this morning) for 150
miles. We have been calling supply houses, and every place that came up
on google. The supply house down the street ran out by 10 am monday and
at Lowes monday I saw a guy tear the last one off the shelf display
screw breaking the back right out of the thing... The tree guys we have
seen said it's much worse than the last two hurricanes we have had here...
