On all of the previous units, it was generally the heating elements/burners that failed by rusting out. Thank you for your help.
We just moved from MA to TV this past December and had a 3 burner Weber propane grill for 15 years. It was kept outside with a good quality Weber cover and the only thing I ever had to replace were the "flavor bars", after about 10 years. I would have brought it with me when we moved, but the burners were starting to get pretty rusty and would have needed to be replaced soon. I think it was a pretty good investment - I paid about $400 for it and it lasted a long time.

We're moving into a new home next month, and I will be buying another Weber! We're currently renting a home here in TV and it has a built-in Vermont Castings grill. It's pretty heavy duty, but I like cooking on the Weber much better.
