So I am out of town and get a Tex from my girlfriend. She says " is this the big one like you wanted ? " And of course I say yes it is and very cheap, but of course I'm out of town!!! Couple hours later I get a pic of it at home in the driveway. She is awesome!!! Looks for them, and picks it up for me!!! Last week my $100 master touch and know this!!!

Plus it's a 27er!!!!  A little bigger than a 26er!  Those are super rare!  LOL

$50 w/ cover & she grabs it for you.  Awesome girl you got!!!  That calls for a little box lunch action

Great girl and grill!

What!  You got her trained to look for deals on CL for you.  That is awesome pickup by your girlfriend. She is a special lady.

Hopefully the grill grate is not too bad of shape. Overall, it is in a great shape. Talk about a steal at $50.   Never seen a heat shield on a handle like that.   Maybe that is how it comes on 26".   

If it's not cleaned up when you get home, you should trade her in for a different model. Just sayin'

She's a keeper!

I think I like your girlfriend too!!! She's definitely a keeper.

Hell ya!

The cover is worth $50!

Props to enabler SO's.

Wow.  That is awesome on so many levels!  Congrats on the great score, and I mean a girlfriend like that and the kettle.

Dammit Son!..keep the GF and that grill!

Does this girlfriend have a sister by chance? I'm asking for a friend..   ;) ;D

Wow, great find (the girlfriend and the grill).

Never seen a taco handle without bolt on handles. Interesting.

Well I got a few more pics when I got home but not many. Got in trouble for looking at the grill before I whet in and said hi . It needs a cleaning but not to much. More so inside from grease more than anything. Grates are in good shape, only a couple dents and chips on and around lid. Guy said he only used it twice for big cooks and sat the rest of the time. I thought from pics the heat shield ( taco handle ) around lid handle was homemade but looks to be original. Here are the pics, will definitely post more when it's all cleaned up

Fantastic.  What a price!!

I suppose I could live with those dings for $50;)

@cumminfourya congratulations man! I'm glad you got it! I didn't get a chance to take off work to go after it. I figured that one wouldn't last long. That's super awesome that your girlfriend picked it up for you! $50 for a 26 is a STEAL!! That DZ is the first year of the modern 26er. I saw one on display (same DZ code) on display at the Ace Hardware on Saddlecreek Road back in 2013-14 and I was foolish and didn't ask to buy it then. Next time I came back it was replaced with a Taco handle 2014 display.

Oh and yes, the 2008-2009 ones came with an early style, easily removable taco shield. I wish they would have kept them optional like these.

Thanks everybody. I'm very excited about it and can't wait to start cleaning it up. And @Craig I can't believe I got it. When she sent me the link it had already been up for 2 hours. Thought for sure it would have been gone.

Awesome!
all around
