Very few standby generators are set up to handle a long-term outage with no fuel replenishment. Their purpose is to keep critical systems running for the duration of "reasonable" power outages. If you want coverage beyond that, things start getting expensive (large fuel tanks and the investment of thousands of dollars to fill them). Not reasonable or even permissible in most residential cases.
