Grill shopping

Hard to believe that it already has been 4 years since hurricane Ike ventured into Ohio and knocked out our power for NINE DAYS, but getting older distorts time as events blur with the accumulation of experience thus dulling ones' recognition of not-so-significant events.
I mention Ike because it was Ike that made me truly appreciate our propane grill.
To me, food is fuel, thus eating is a necessary event. In the grand scheme of things, food devoured becomes waste excreted regardless if it's baked, boiled, grilled, or frozen prior to consumption. Enjoyment of food is so temporary that it is low on my personal priority list when I consider spending my funds. Quantity outweighs quality as general rule, but for the occasional indulgence which sparks life into mundane events such as consumption of food.
Our propane grill was a gift from J's parents. They like to grill so they got us one. I saw the grill as an object that performed redundant duties given that we had a kitchen.

After Ike, I decided it wise to have a means to prepare food without being dependent upon public utility companies. I used the grill to boil water to make my coffee.
The grill has now come to a point where it's needing to be replaced.
Grills come in so many varieties and prices that one has to consider durability. Cheap grills rust out regardless of where and how they are stored. Heat from propane destroys surface integrity of places in contact with flames, so the innards of grill need to be more than pretty to the eye to hold value.
Char-broil has a series of grills that seem to meet my desires accordingly, even with replacement parts that cost less than replacing the grill unlike our current grill that seems to be a brand that is akin to Craftsman.
