After a year of buying and selling craigslist finds. I have some new additions and felt like posting:
(http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n182/CLAUER55/image.jpg1_zpslcnjj73t.jpg)
New 18" WSM with PITMASTER IQ 110 and New Performer Deluxe will be my go to's.
The 18" 3 wheeler was a craigslist score primarily for tailgating and traveling.
The SJG Mini WSM is the old sentimental favorite.
The Genesis still serves as a workhouse for family parties.
These aren't just pretty faces. This photo was taken to commemorate the maiden voyage of the performer. While I was arranging these kettles a nice porterhouse was earning some grill marks.
That's sharp !!!
Intimidating WEBER BLACKNESS !!!!!!
That's the sort of lineup that can handle about any task with ease and creativity --- and do it in style.

Thanks
@1buckie. I am partial to black. The two thoughts i had as i staged them all:
1. Darth Vader would be proud. I should be playing the imperial march from star wars.
2. I'm more of a Chevy Man, but Henry Ford would be proud too: "You can have any colour, as long as it's black"
Ya, I can't imagine anything that you cant cook on those...nice collection!!
Hawt.

That was the goal.
One other thought: If i ever needed to cook for a real large group, i could remove the center portions of the smokers, and use the bowls with lids as grills on a table, That would give me:
Sq. In. Cooking area Burger Capacity Each
1 - 22 inch kettle 363 15
2 - 18 inch kettles* 240 10
2 - 14 inch kettles 147 6
1 - Genesis 637 25
TOTAL 1774 Sq. In. Cooking area 72 Burgers
That is more then a Ranch Kettle and a 26" Kettle combined!
At this point the only things i could add (without exact redundancy) are a 26" Kettle and a 22" inch WSM. Both of which would be awesome but would be overkill for my typical needs. All that being said, if one popped up on craigslist for a great price, i'm sure i could find room 8)
The only other thing i am actively looking for is a cheap 22" beater kettle to use as a dedicated high heat pizza cooker. i want to experiment doing pizza this summer and don't want to damage the performer in the process. I'm sure i will find one for $20 or less at some point this spring when people start spring cleaning.
Awesome, Charlie. But, you've got the whole gamut covered in black, EXCEPT - a brand new black Mastertouch! You'd better get on it. ;-)
A black 26 would fit in nicely tho!
Nice line up charlie, for sure.
Looking good.

Looking good.
Hmm, The MT is nice...
If I didn't have room for the performer the MT would be a solid find. If I grabbed one on CL for the right price It might be an add on.
Adding the MT warming rack to my performer would be really awesome.
The new performer is sweet! Love the extended lid bail and metal table.
@austin87 I agree. The wider kid bale is nice but the metal table is the real difference IMO. My old OTP Had the thermoset table and it always looked filthy no matter how often I cleaned it. The dark metal is easier to keep clean. Also the new gourmet grate is a nice upgrade.
Nice bunch of Webers there!
