In pretty rough shape but the price was right-

Was that the $25 performer? Or was it possibly the free one I saw for a minute or two?
Either way or none, what a haul sir! Congrats on your successful day!

As always nice work, captjoe06, from FL to MA, no Performer left behind. 

Maybe "midgetize" the 18"?

Like the way it is "moored" in the back of your truck. How do you transport the the lids?  I use to transport mine with the lid on and a tie down strap run through the handle of the lid.  That was until a lid recently somehow came off on the freeway and made it over the tailgate.  Didn't loose the lid as it remained tethered to the strap. It did hit the bumper causing a big dent in the rim.  The lids now ride in the back section of my quad cab.

I have actually lost a cover and a lid from a strapped down performer... So now, it's anything loose get's put in the back of the quad cab, kettles get flipped and put in front of truck bed, performers get strapped in the back. Hasn't failed me yet-

Thanks. The 18 was free for a reason but I'll strip her down for parts. The big score was the unexpected OTP. I really love the lightweight with a table aspect

I started doing that with gas genesis for friends and family. It's a fun little hobby

At the place where there was the OTP he offered me a Q 300 for 75. Probably should have grabbed it. Burners were clean, Grate was decent
