And very soon, you'll KNOW that you made a major step up!
I worked for Traeger for a short time, and still have a BBQ125 (that cost $2K 8 years ago!). When the auger motor died (after having replaced igniter rods more than once/year), I converted it into a storage bin for my GrillGrates and (also unused) Smokenator. And bought a 640!
You'll wonder why you waited so long!
