Seems like every grill I have seen with a nuclear melt down, has been a cabinet grill.
Weber Genesis Gold Gas Grill - free stuff
Knobs started on fire, will need new knobs and possibly a new gas line ( not sure if that’s why it...

This is right by my house. I think I'll pick up because my neighbor lost his side tables, so will be good for parts.

I hardly ever need a truck or more space than my wife's old van or my old SUV can hold. And if these cars are not enough I rent a trailer. The cheapest open box U-Haul trailer is about $20 for 24h. And these galvanized steel trailers from U-Haul are tough as nails. They also have high side walls with railings to strap down the cargo.
. I dream of a big old Dodge truck - the first generation with the “Freightliner” look. Then put a “My Old Grill” sign on it, and I am ready to go!

I guess, technically, my Odyssey can tow 3,500 pounds if empty. I suppose with a hitch I could pull a very small U-Haul trailer with a few grills inside. I have never thought of my light duty, front wheel drive van as something that can tow, but I guess I need to look into it more. Thanks for asking the question!

They're actually quite capable. I just sold my boat a few weeks ago, but I pulled that boat all over the place with my Chrysler vans, with my little 4 banger Saturn Vue with 4cyl and 5spd manual, my Infiniti QX4, and most recently with my Toyota Highlander 2001 3.0 V6. Of these only the QX4 was a "truck based" vehicle. Of course we're not talking a yacht here either. It was a 14' resort style deep V tiller steer

I towed an 18 ft travel trailer with my Ford Windstar back in the day. A utility trailer with a few grills on it would be easy. A lot cheaper to run than a truck if you really don’t need it for other things. I do still miss my F150 4X4 though.

I love my truck. When I see a curb alert Weber and want to go, I just jump in and go. That extra 10 minutes of hooking up the trailer and all is a pain and time consuming. But, yah, unless you will really be using a truck as a truck, it is probably better to just get a cargo trailer for a few grill pickups a year.

I am guessing that the only way to take apart this LP level indicator from my Genesis 2 is to drill out 2 of these pins and eventually replace them with bolts. If there is another way I would love to know it. I am just going to do this restore slowly over the winter so I am in no rush. I would like to do it right though and have a long lasting grill after I am done.

Nice pickup! In which city was this taken?

That looks pretty rough. If it were me, I'd try to salvage one from another grill. Or buy a new one.

Where you picking up, delivering or what in this photo? If a pickup - how did you find so many? I put a hitch and cargo rack on the back of the van to pickup grills. Before that I was laying them down inside.
