Well, here we go. They did it. FB MP is going to become a conflagurated mess.

Looks like turkey is going to be relatively inexpensive this year for the holidays. I grabbed a Young Turkey about 11 lbs last week at Walmart and cooked it up on the roto on my Genesis. It was $.84 per lb. I think the whole turkey cost me less than ten bucks.

Not needing hearing protection is great when using power equipment, but that is low on my list. I live with a paved stock car racetrack list than 1/4 mile from me and train tracks about 300 ft away along the back of my property. So much for peace an quiet of rural living.

How does that leaf blower do Cody? I bought a new (gas) one last year to replace the Craftsman that I had for about ten years and was getting hard to start and keep running well. I went with a Homelite. It was on par with my Craftsman and I am happy with it, but I just didn't even consider a...

I assumed Ridgid does manufacture their own tools.

Larry, a year or so ago, I did do some extensive searching online for adapters which would allow me to use my Ridgid batteries on other tools....however, it seems Ridgid is very good at somehow preventing this.

Josh, you are sooooo right. I don't know what it is about Weber grills, but they seem to bring out the best in people. I am and have been on several other similar forums. Not just grill ones, but automotive, small engine, etc....... And by far, this is the best one for not only congeniality...

Yah, I am a Ridgid guy and have a good selection of batteries, so, I try to stick to Ridgid battery powered tools. It makes me mad that all the companies are so proprietary though. Battery interchangeability with tools for other companies would be nice as long as they were the same voltage.

It does take a while to heat up, but I can verfiy they will get up over the 500 degree mark easily even on a 110 outlet.

Totally agree Larry. I too would buy a fully restored '68 Camero Z28 with about 500hp if I won the lottery as on of my first purchases. And I just recently bought a battery powered Ridgid chain saw. Never would I have thought I would do something like that. But I just tired of fiddling with...

That is really cool. There has been a couple members who acquired variations of that grill and rehabbed or are in the process of rehabbing them. I am sure they can answer a lot of the question you do and will have as you take the journey of getting that one set up to do some grilling. As far...

Too far for me too.

I will vouch for that stuff. It won't "fix" the fade problem, but it does a great job of hiding it and seems to last quite a while.

Yah, it is one of those childhood memories that stick with you even though to many, it was very insignificant. I am sure if you asked my sisters, they wouldn't even be able to tell you that we had a grill on the back deck growing up. I wasn't really active in grilling growing up, but it was...
