A couple of Maroons that I like.
« on: November 05, 2017, 05:23:24 AM »
The OTG was sold to me from @stevembh after he saw it with the sweet Birdseye maple handles I think he wanted it back.  ;)

The midget is a converted OTS. I do love this color

Cool. It's hard to see and appreciate the true color sometimes b/c they're so reflective. Maroon is very subtle, I like it.

I love the Plum colored ones. Those look like Plum to me?
It's the iconic symbol for the backyard. It's family/friends, food and fun. What more do you need to feel everything [is] going to be all right. As long as we can still have a BBQ in our backyard, the world seems a bit of a better place. At least for that moment. -reillyranch

Those are nice.  :D

I must admit that this colour has grown on me … Although, I've never seen one in person.  Just pics …

 @LightningBoldtz , is there only one bowl handle on both of these ??

Good looking set. It is an under appreciated color.

While looking for interesting ones, I've run across a number of photos where I cannot quite tell if the grill is black or if it is a green or red in poor lighting.  Some time ago, I emailed a seller telling him I couldn't quite tell the color because of the lighting and asked him if it was red or black.  He responded by saying it was really dark red, almost black (which I found even more confusing). 

Now, I'm wondering if some of the ones I saw were maroons. 

Does anyone have any idea what range of years had that color available?
regards,
Hal

I believe only 2 years DD2000 and DA2001

Thanks. 
Looking back at the pictures, I'm beginning to wonder if one was a brick red in basically shadows.
