I just bought this 2 weeks ago. I found it at Pep Boys for $99 with a $40 rebate:

We used it the weekend I bought it and let me tell you, it is one awsome grill. It only takes about 60 seconds to set up, and it cooks REALLY good food. It uses mini-propane tanks and can be used as a table-top grill or as a full as in the picture. It's very easy to clean up too. The burner is completely protected from grease. I just cover the hotplate with a piece of foil and poke holes in it. There wasn't one spot of grease after I was done. It was like brand new.

My wife is a big hot dog fanatic, and she says that grill made the best hot dogs she has ever had. ( I KNOW what your thinking so STOP )

I'm even laughing. I am just wrong..........

Somthing about this whole post has me racing through all the things I could say..But then I just remembered, your wife and I see things alike and that's why I like her too..


But a HUMMER grill??..Something wrong about that or you are really just ate up (in a good way that is)

Well, let me explain :)

We are trying to get into the outdoor-sie kinda things. We both want to buy an RV and take more trips and hopefully next year we will try to buy a Camper Van. In the meantime, I wanted to be able just to go anywhere and have a cookout, so I looked at portable grills, but this one just transformed so easily, and cmon, for 60 bux (normally 200) I couldn't resist. In all honesty, it really is a great grill. It cooks food so much better then any other grill I have used, IT even rivals the big boys. You'd be surprised ;)

thanks, this was our first trip with it, 5 feet longer than our old one. still, nothing like the 40' monster beside us, which towed an H1 behind it.

dear god...thats a costly rig right there! 40' rv towing an h1...WOW..tree huggers must LOVE him

you can't see it, but on the other side is a 36 footer, that also towed an H1 the whole way. we got a lot of funny looks on the way.

all I know is that when you have an h1 as your tow behind dingy...you are DEFINATELY living right!

We went to 2 huge RV and Boat shows this year, and the one we actually thought about buying was the smallest Dutchman in the series, but it was pushing something like 2800 lbs, and with me, my wife and our gear, it would hvae exceeded the 3000 lb limit of wieght on the Manual H3 we have. Since all I have ever towed were motorcycle trailors, I wasn't sure about this. I have a good hitch and ball setup, but I wasn't sure 1) if the weight would damage the transmission and/or engine 2) If I'd be able to make it up the steep inclines and 3) if we would could get away with just using the H3 brakes or if I'd have to install some kind of perpetual assisted braking system on the H3. I only wired the standard 4 wire connect for our hitch, but I would like to at some point also install the power-assist braking system (forgot what it's called) that applies pressure based on a motion sensor. You guys know what I mean

We are getting one of three things this coming summer:

1) A used Camper Van (we have seen the early 90's one as cheap as 10k in great condition)

2) a trailor or pop-up (even though my wife wants a self-contained vehicle, I'll settle for this if it does the same thing for us)

3) A second car (either a used BMW Z3 or Merc SLK convertible (old used of course) :)

If ANYBODY out there has driven a Z3 and/or SLK hard top, let me know because I'm dying to find out which handles better.

We don't have a whole lot of money to work with, but hell we are still young and want to do some fun things before we have kids.

Oh, and I love your setup. Nothing cooler then a H2 towing a trailor, or better yet, that RV towing a H1!

don't know what kinda system the travel trailers use for brakes but if they make one with surge brakes that is the way to go. the tongue of the trailer is actually a slide that when the tow vehicle brakes the trailer goes forward slides the tongue and applies the trailer brakes. It's a great no hassel easy system and is fool proof. All you need for wiring is a wire to your reverse lights that will disengage the surge brakes so you can back up, without it when your tow vehicle goes into reverse it will push in the trailer tongue and engage the brakes. In my auto I have towed over 4000 pound regularly with no problems at all, I maintain a 70-75 speed and make passes on the highway with no real problems. It may slow down on steep inclines but no more than a loaded big rig, just get to the right behind the trucks when you see an incline coming.

we originally looked at getting a pop-up, but that was when we had a 4runner to pull it, and there isn't much storage room in a 4runner. the only problem we had was lack of storage, and setting it up in the rain. you're young, so the rain shouldn't bother you, but my ancient joints don't deal with it well - and i might melt .

as for braking, if you're going to tow more than 1000 lbs, you should have a brake controller. i don't know about pop-ups, but all other rv trailers come with electric brakes. i've put the controllers in 2 different vehicles now, they're not hard at all, and definitely a necessity. i'd recommend one with a variable output, based on how hard the tow vehicle is braking. otherwise, you could end up locking up the trailer brakes on a wet road, and a fishtailing trailer is no fun.

it's obviously your choice, but camper vans, IMO, aren't the way to go. most can't pull a vehicle as heavy as the H3 behind them, so you'd have to drive 2 vehicles wherever you go. trailers tend to hold value a bit better (not much though), since there's far less to break or wear out, and insurance and registration is a good bit cheaper (big deal here in CA). plus, you have regular DMV inspections that your state requires, and all the other hassles that come along.

still, gettin' out under the stars, in whatever mode, is definitely a good time.

they may be out there, but i haven't seen a rv/trailer with the surge brake system. i've only seen that on boat trailers.
