I just got back from the store and learned about the adjustable damper. Turns out, he has a 3 day used 640 with a couple scratches on the paint that he will sell me for $1400 all in taxes included. Pretty sure this is what I want to do. Got a little sidetracked with a green egg, but after...
This is a very old thread, so I probably won't get an answer...but I was just offered to buy a year and a half old Traeger 075 for $300. For those of you that had the frustrations of the Traeger, would you say this is still a good deal to gab based on the fact this will be my first pellet...

Finally talking the wife into letting me pull the trigger in a Pellet Smoker. Live in Livermore Californa and have BBQ'd 3-4 days a week in charcoal and gas my whole life,with no skill at all or ability. I am ashamed to say, my skills are that of someone that just cooks it. So I have a whole...
