While cleaning out many of my cookers today, I was thinking of things that I once had and sold for one reason or another,but now wish I had. For me the list is long...

A Pitts ad Spitts trailer smoker
A cargo trailer
FEC 100
And the list goes on....

What have you sold for whatever reason, that you wish you hadn't?
 
1967 Caprice HP396 Factory Muncie rock crusher 4 speed bucket seats, Wood grain console and dash Factory 8 track built into the console / dash. NO power steering, no power brakes, No AC, just water pump and alternator belt driven.

Gold on gold with black vinyl top. Came with fender skirts

I had to leave my smoke house behind when we moved
 
In my case, I still have almost everything I started with in my sig. after deciding to try to up my BBQ/Smoking game and learning from the Pro's on this fine site. I would like to get into stick burning but do not have the room or need for a big cooker. I might could handle a patio model at some point.
 
Texas Smokemaster offset. Thought I didn't need 2 stick burners.

Can you be a little more descriptive, it doesn't seem you know much about the car.

I feel your pain. Sounds like a nice ride.
 
After being screwed over by my first wife in divorce, I realized that I never had anything that I couldn't replace with something better.
Including her. :wink:
After that adjustment, I don't regret parting with anything. Because there is something better out there to enjoy more. :biggrin1:

That being said, I've never been one to buy a lot of things to try them. I buy things to keep them. So I know what I want to buy before I do it. :decision:
 
My WSM 18” and Weber performer after I got the 1st Primo. I think I am going to pick up another kettle. Talked my son into a 22” WSM so I am set there.
 
I am supposed to send off 2 Weber's and a Little Chief smoker tomorrow. Those and the rehomed ones in my sight I sorta regret. On the other hand, I found them good homes, instead of them languishing around here. I am holding onto the copper kettle for now, but I have no idea why...

And on the subject of car regrets, I wish I had kept the 70 Hurst/Olds Indy 500 pace car convertible, the 70 Buick GS Stage 1, and the 70 GTO Judge Ram air 3 car. I had many others, but those would be the most valuable today...

Traeger Junior Elite
Sold it to buy my 270 Smokers Sumo. Kind of regret it now. Just regret selling the Traeger not regretting the Sumo.
 
I regret selling my Lang 60. I love the cookers I have now, but wish I still had the stick burner for when I have time to tend a fire.
 
BBQ wise it's my Weber performer. I sold it because I wanted more convenience at the time and got a nice gasser. Then I got a Blackstone and I've used the gasser maybe 8 times in almost 5 years but I've missed having the Weber far more. I need to try vortex wings!
 
1965 Chevelle SS, 1969 Chevelle, 1970 Buick GS, 1986 Ninja ZX1000R.
I've got more cookers and smokers now than I've ever had.
Wonder if this forum has anything to do with that?
 
Traded my blackstone griddle for some new tires for my vehicle... I don't regret selling it.. as I never used it.. But I sure as hell do regret not using it as much as I should! But... on the bright side of things... I'll be getting a 28" soon! After a few uses I felt the 36" was just to much for me.. I don't need that much cooking surface
 
1948 MGTC - My family had this one, torn apart and rebuilt twice. After my Dad’s third marriage and subsequent moves too many parts were missing and at the time I didn’t have money to fix it up.
1967 Mustang 6 cylinder. Always thought I would replace with a 289 but never did.
1974 MGB - Got tired of not having any space, traded for a ‘73 Volvo Wagon - what the hell was I thinking?
