In the 5 years I own my Traeger 075e, I replaced the hot rod 3 times, and the fire pot once. The heat deflector and drip pan were still serviceable but flaking rust constantly. I gave it to my brother who used it for a year before replacing it with a newer model Traeger.

5 years on a PG500 with no issues.

The other side of that coin is my 10 year old 075 Texas is in excellent shape and the only thing I have replaced is 1 Hot Rod.
