Other than drinking gas like a humvee, and weighing about the same as the titanic, I have no complaints with mine.
I know about the fuel consumption! A friend borrowed an old IR compressor to run a drill to bore fence post holes on his farm. It was an early 1950's unit with a six cylinder flathead Chrysler industrial engine with a clutch. It had an air tank on each side mounted down low and some of the body panels were made of fiberglass. The compressor worked flawlessly and after the job was done he found he could have rented a new diesel compressor for the cost of the fuel he used!
