    Thanks to everyone for their input.

    I decided to buy another performer deluxe based on a couple of points:
    • I hadn't taken into account that I already have a rotisserie for the kettle (which I use very often) along with the SNS, Upper Deck rack, and GrillGrates. I didn't want the additional cost of repurchasing those items.
    • I'm already proficient in the 22 in. model. I know how it works and how to get out of it what I want. At this time, I don't want to relearn everything. Maybe later, but not now.
    • I was tempted by what @fzxdoc said about the Summit. I've wanted one since they first came out, but I just can't justify the cost at this time.
    • The gas ignition system. Necessary, probably not, but mighty handy.
    • Comes with the table. I won't have to make one in the equatorial heat and humidity of the central Florida coast (with a bad back to boot).
    Thanks again for your input. Dinner's on me if anyone makes it to my neck of the woods.

    Your mileage may vary. Does not include dealer prep, options, and destination fees. Void where prohibited by law. Do not remove tag under penalty of law. Keep out of reach of children. Not an approved floatation device. Remove child before laundering.

      HawkerXP It's pretty dinged up and the aluminum parts such as the clean out parts corroded through so there isn't any control over the bottom vents. The legs of the cart are corroded and the one touch ignition died.

      Could I fix these things? Sure I could, but I just don't feel like messing with it. Thanks for the advice about the screws. That hadn't crossed my mind. Any ideas to keep the cart parts in better condition?

      Other than moving? No.

      HawkerXP - Hopefully when I retire in a couple of years I can leave Florida and move somewhere up South.

    26 would be my choice. More room is always nice.
