Bought mine in 2003, perfect for camping, the beach, tailgating, or just a day trip. The side vents aren't ideal, but work fine. Nice score!

That's also the firebox for the char griller smoker

If Pasco wasn't all the way over on the other side of the State, I'd run out and buy it tomorrow. I have 3, and absolutely love them. A new one in the box is a true rarity, and should not go to someone who doesn't appreciate what they are getting.

You really need to negotiate with the wife...

I think she'll be ok with it when I tell her we need it for the camping trip we're taking with her extended family next month. That's my plan.

I'm kinda tempted to keep it new in the box, but I don't think it'll ever be worth more than the $60 I paid for it, and it will be a great addition to my arsenal. I'm pleased to be its first owner, and am looking forward to its inaugural cook.
