I am looking at the #2 because the #1 is just a little too small for what I need. I have a cabin that is about an hour from my home. Is this unit light enough that two people could easily lift in and out of a pickup truck to transport? Or is that not recommended? Thanks for any info.

I can pick the my Cookshack SM008 (same size as #2) up by myself and carry it up the steps and across the deck without making my hernia worse. But for sure it is much easier to move on a cart or with a friend. I bought a #1 to use for camping and it is much more portable than the #2. And the #1 is A LOT smaller than the #2.
I would say that if you have to only carry it up a 50 ft driveway/walk and a few stairs that you would be fine with the #2. Also the #2 will sit on most dollys and can be restrained with a rachet strap easily to make transport easy.
I gave my friend the Smokin Tex 1400 I had and built a transport dolly for him out of a filing cabinet and some 8 in wheels from Harbor Freight so he can move it from a storage shed in his back yard to the deck.
