35K for whole house generator installation

As the title says, I just received a quote for a whole house gen at $35k. Based on quotes I've seen online, I can't help but think that is way overpriced and someone is trying to get one over on me. I did contact them through email just in case there was an error and they said the price was correct.

Some info about the installation:

Generator: Kohler 20RCAL­200SELS 20KW Standby
Generator Air Cooled with 200 Amp Automatic Transfer Switch

Home size: 1500 sq ft

Installation price includes underground install of gas tank and fill, concrete slab installation, permits, and cat 6 network line installation.

I live in central Florida. If there's any other information needed, let me know. Also, I am currently awaiting another contractor coming out and giving a quote as well.
