I like the newer carts myself. The older ones are a PIA to fold up. If you don't transport the grill and cart much, the older one is probably the best option as it seems more sturdy.
 
Yah, I don't use a cart for mine. It sits on a shelf off my deck. If I do want to take it somewhere, I always have a cart laying around somewhere.
This way it doesn't take up valuable deck space either.

Yeah I probably would just use my tailgate. Or a rolling work cart from my garage. If I keep any of them it'll just be for cooking while I'm working in the garage. I don't see transporting it for my needs.

@Bruce what do you think of the traveler Grill?

Looks like it would be good for transporting

One popped up for $75 near me a month or so ago. I still kick myself for not jumping on it. It sold quick. I did see one in use a couple years ago and it was a very good and capable grill. If I did a lot a transporting, I think one of those would be my choice over a Q....except the new Q's peak my interest as well.

I might like to try both traveler and a newer Q if the opportunity arises. I don't need a grill to transport but I do like smaller grills.

The 240 is perfect for most things for me and I think I'm really going to like my Jr.
 
I think I have pretty much solve my light problem while grilling after dark as well. If you notice in that photo above, I have an LED solar light attached to that board that is trained on my grill. No batteries, turns on when it detects motion and stays on while I am working on the grill and turns off after thirty seconds of no motion detected. It is trained just right to illuminate the grill while I am working on it, doesn't need constant adjusting, is not ever in the way and is nice and bright. I don't have to worry about it melting or batteries dying or leaking. It was $5 at Menards on a Flash sale. I have one mounted for my LX S240 on my front deck as well.

That's excellent Bruce!
Also very creative space saving setup you have there. I like it!
 
Thanks. That back deck is pretty small and by having it not on the deck itself, it doesn't interfere with snow shoveling the deck in the winter. I even have the LP tank hanging off the outside of the deck on a hook. I do also have a chain on it for safety reasons. ;)

Thanks Bruce! I had to seriously modify that bezel to get it to sit flat like I wanted it. Goal was to make it look as good or better than it would have come factory from Weber.

I would be interested in the details on that if you are willing to share. I am doing similarly on my CharQ, but so far have stopped short of a completely flush mounting.

Okay Jon so I started by ordering a couple of these Weber temp gauges with bezels. Most of them are sold without bezel and I think the bezel is for the 3200. You would know? Screenshot_20241019_195836_Photos.jpg
I thought the bezel would go all the way back to the lid but that wasn't the case. The back of the bezel sticks out so I cut the back of the bezel off and that still wasn't quite enough so I cut a piece of metal wire and formed it to fit inside of what was left of the bezel to push a little bit of distance between the thermometer and the bezel. This pushed the bezel tight against the lid. I think it turned out looking as good as factory which is what I was hoping to achieve.
