Curb Alert !!!


 
People around here don't value older things. Most people are more concerned about image and having something new and shiny to show off to there neighbors
 
Let me say first, that I LOVE Genesis grills - well, the classic older ones up through the Silver/Gold/Platinums of 2005, that is. So, nothing wrong in trying to make them as good as possible.

I will just say that in the case of 1st generation Summits - and in my book at least - the Platinum Summits - these were grills in a higher league. Yes, I know all about the firebox issues. I am glad I could fix that on my 1st gen Summit, and I believe it could be done - and would be worthwhile - on a 2nd generation Platinum Summit.

I guess I think when bargains - or giveaways - on the above-mentioned Summits come along, I cringe a little when people just want to part them out in order to upgrade a Genesis. Again, I love my Genesis grills, past and present, but when I open the hood on my Summit (that Larry was kind enough to sell to me) it is a whole different level to me - like getting inside a Mercedes vs. a very nice Buick. I haven't used a 2nd generation Summit, but that stainless frame and all stainless cabinetry is very appealing and how ALL Summits should be built.

Give a Summit a chance!

I’ll give one a chance if I get one right!
 
Always like a freebie with a sideburner

 
That is not a bad grill. I think I might even have a couple good legs laying around here for one reason or another. Even so, for some of the skilled folks we have here, easy fix
