Awesome Joan, it is nice to hear an opinion from the Better Half!I am a wife of a man that has over 9 Marine generators in our garage, waiting to be repaired and sold. I would give anything if they were Weber grills. I don't think grills take up as much space as these generators. Your wives are very lucky. lol
I should have written "Rehab Me" in the dust before I washed it.If you like two burners, it is a great rehab candidate.
What did / are you doing with those Titanium grates?I should have written "Rehab Me" in the dust before I washed it.
I will probably flip this, but depending on how it comes out, it may replace the two-burner Spririt E-210 I left at her aunt's house on the Cape. Then I'll sell that one.
Any comments regarding how hot this may get compared to the Spirit E-210? I've only used the two-burner Spirit a few times, but it doesn't seem to get hot enough for me, which is something I have read.
I think she was getting concerned after the free Silver C (with the Titanium grates) showed up last month; that made four grills in the back yard. I appeased the marital gods by selling the Spirit E-310 we found on the side of the road last year for $150 (rusty base and all), so she realizes that I can make a few $ on these, especially when they're free.
Rich,Don't know how I missed this tread, well yes I do spending half my life at doctors appointments.
Barb and I did about 25 rehabs together a few years ago and we both finally said enough. We couldn't find anything locally and driving to Phoenix became cost prohibitive. 200+ miles round trip and even back then the market was drying up. Plus the mess was getting to me.
We are looking forward to doing our last restore, our chocolate Genesis 2, although the lumber has doubled in price so we are going to wait a little to see if it comes back down.
Barb and I do almost everything together and that's the way I like it.
Two things that Barb said to me, one is when we went down to Phoenix and it was 122 outside to pick up a Geneses 2000 for $50.00 It took us about 20 minuets to disassemble the grill and load into the 4 runner. We both almost passed out in that heat.Rich,
You are very blessed. To get thing better with my wife, I am trying to stop looking at all grill ads (you were expecting ****, weren't you?) and work slow but steadily to start whittling down my inventory. She is so fed up with my collecting and excessive varied interests that overextend me that she is barely speaking to me. None of my collecting/gardening/etc. hobbies are worth this. So, some things have to change - like it or not.
