Drive up to Oregon?
Naw, not to Oregon. But BigPoppa’s is about 3 hours drive from here. I’ll be calling them in a couple of weeks and see what could be arranged.

I'm pretty sure BPS doesn't have any MAK's at their place in CA. My dad lives in La Quinta and I called BPS when I was out there to see if I could stop by and see a 2 Star as I was thinking of buying one. Granted this was 4 years ago, but I would assume BPS has MAK ship their orders from Oregon.

I guess I'll find out when I call - if they don't, then looks like hiring some high school kids might be the solution as someone else suggested.
"Is BPS cheaper than buying direct from MAK? No sales tax from MAK." - I do not think BPS is cheaper based on website pricing for the base grill and options, but they throw in some other stuff as a discounted bundle. As for assembly, if they do not offer some options, then direct from MAK makes sense to me.
