To some those kind of figures are scary and seem expensive but in order to get a pit made by most of the builders out there that is built with the same quality, craftsmanship and capacity as ssv3's you'd end up with a HUMONGOUS trailer pit that would take up three times more room, weigh three times as much and cost in the neighborhood of 6 to 10 grand, BEFORE shipping!:wink:
This for example doesn't have as much total cooking area as ssv3's pit,...

Wait till you see it in person.:becky: That's soounds about right on the wait. Mine took longer because most of the 40ish orders before me were custom trailers. I wanted metal art on mine as well but didn't really come up with anything meaninful that I liked so I left it alone.
Nicely put brother!! I almost can't believe it only cost me that much. Honest.

somebody shut me the fark up.
Thanks for the info. I tried to look at their site and it didn't load well on my PC. Might be Firefox and the site don't get along.
I haven't been pricing stick burners, happy with my WSM at this time, so my first reaction is that sounds high to me, but obviously I am wrong. Reading what others have posted seems like it is a great deal. They do seem really well made, just like SF's. I have seen cheap models at HEB, HD, Academy, etc, and those don't even compare to this.
Luckily, if I ever decide to go that way, they are just a 3 hour drive for me to "ship" it myself.
You already saved some money instantly.:becky:
I hear ya! You and only you will know it when it's time to pull the trigger. I just got hooked on the food off of a stick burner but definitely sat down and put all the factors (design, pitbuilder, cost, shipping, tending fire, buying wood, maintenance, etc.) into it before I bought it.
