New Member - 1st Grill purchase, need advice

[LMichaels]

You live in the land of Weber. What is rare to most of us, you may see 3 of on the way to the grocery store.
Did you bother to post that lid here on our fair board?

I did. No takers. It came off my friend's Genesis 5 (I think it was a 5). It had doors, side burner and all the attachments of the 5000 but no casters so it pre dated the X000 grills. He gave it to me after he smashed it with his boat. So I stripped whatever I could from it and dumped the rest
