Phat, I've eaten a ton of food cooked on a holland grill. It all started probably 10 years ago when one of my friends got one. Then one of my other friends ate from the other guys holland and went out and bought one....this cycle has went around a few times and now practically all of my friends have holland grills.
You are right, it is a different kind of grill that has that nice feature where you turn the gas all the way up, close door and pre-heat, add food and close door until its done (well maybe flip it in between). We always say, "if you're looking you ain't cookin." Those grills don't get much if any over 375 degrees. I'm not sure how "low" it will go but I'd bet pretty dang low, maybe 200 degrees? Don't know. My opinion is now that you have had the holland, I seriously doubt you'll be happier with anything else. 10 more years for 25 bucks a year ain't too bad IMO. I say get the rebuild kit. p.s. I wish I was close by to that stainless model on CL. Nice! Blue's .02

Good point, blue. i'm scared i'd be setting my self up for a disappointment. my dad always told me "If the only complaint you have about something is the price, you got a deal".
your right, if your thing is looking & flippin, don't get a holland.

On second thought, you need to get rid of that old thing. I can take it off your hands for free!
I've always wanted a Holland grill.

That's a slick trick right there. I like it.
My dad is building me a new smoker and burn down barrel from scratch. He's putting it together tomorrow. I will definitely have to post pics. 4' x 3' lined with fire brick. I can't wait to get that thing seasoned!

My Weber Genesis Gold is pushing 10 years old and still as good as the day I got it on the original burners/grates etc. My stepfather just replaced his burner tubes on his Weber after 15 years.....

The older i get , the smarter my dad gets. ordered the replacement today. it is basically a new grill, i just use my lid, grill,& stand.
 The pan(pn 22) is the part that rusted out first. then the drain got clogged up & 3 years of grease accumulated and the other night it was "FLAME ON"
