I hear you on the 3, for me it’s 3 hours, each way. 2 SS framed platinums and one fat frame platinum with blue pinstripes lid. All reasonably priced, all 6 hour round trips. But all close in proximity to one another
 
I agree. Everything with used grills seems to run in trends. To start this year, everything I picked up seemed to have a SS lid. Q grills are showing up in droves this year. Summits seem be getting pushed off as well this year more than in the past. I am thinking maybe the new style Q's and the new generation of Summits are enticing people to trade up to the newer models.
 
Larry, I totally believe you that they were lousy cookers, in spite of what the Weber catalogs from the day would have you think. Nonetheless, I would like to have one to stuff somewhere as a keeper just because of the portion of Weber history it represents. Kind of the Edsel of gas grills!

That one would not be a candidate as you would have almost zero chance of getting any of those missing parts. I would take one less than perfect, but without the internals you can’t appreciate what Weber was trying to do to create direct and indirect cooking on a kettle shaped gas grill.

My wife needn’t worry because these gas kettles very seldom come up for sale.
