I had a get together on Saturday and actually bought a Jumbo Joe to take, but decided to pack up my MT instead. Good choice since a couple extra people turned up. It was surprisingly easy to disassemble and pack in the car. I'm a little bummed the legs are now loose, but I gather I can tighten them up with either the broom handle or tape methods, so I wouldn't have any qualms about taking it with me again.
What's the broom and tape method for the legs?  As I on occasion transport like this

Basically either using a broom handle or similar object to flare out the leg tube from the inside, or adding a few wraps of metallic HVAC tape. Either method helps them stay snug in the leg sockets to minimize wobbling.

I don't bother with a chimney anymore when on the road. A pile of coals and a few strategically positioned starters will work just fine. In my case, I use grease soaked folded paper towels that were used to wipe my cast iron skillet. Perfect circle of use.

If you happen to have round handled ratchet or use a Craftsman one and it works   Great however make sure you're not using one that has the knurled handles or anything like that just a round smooth handle stick it down in the hole the way in kind of wallow around a little bit at a time and task hit the leg until it fits snug I have like I said an old Craftsman ratchet that I used to fix the legs on my easy code 3 Wheeler a broom handle is probably a badd name forward because most broom handles were too big really just a small piece of dowel or like I said I should handle works perfect

Wow...  That's a lot of stuff crammed in a tiny grill. I'd love to see a video of you playing well effectively barbecue tetris.

Can't say enough good things about my "Weber Smoky Joe Silver" with custom "Grill Grates" which I bought new in the year 2016!

Just yesterday I grilled a T-Bone, one(1) Johnsonville Italian Sausage and a large tomato dipped in olive oil all at the same time using only one(1) Weber Small chimney full of Costa Rica local charcoal which all cooked to perfection in less than twenty(20) minutes.  I use this grill more often than my Weber 22" Mastertouch and WSM and I grill at least two(2) times a week. Regarding the "Johnsonville" Brand; their Hot Chorizo is one great product on the Weber Grill!
