Mine is under shelter, top vent just cracked open, bottom vent closed, and the the lid on the loose setting.

Mine is the same as Mac's with the exception i have a cover on it 

Its ready to use when i get to it

The same: top slightly open, bottom vents closed, dome on first setting and under its cover.

Since 2007 with first one , til now with all the others. Top vent open 1/8 turn, bottom vents closed, lid closed all the way, and covered.

Thanks to you all for the advice just need a break as I have a bbq trailer business and cooked all of spring Summer till last Friday. I have cooked over 4000 lbs of pork butts on my KK over the last 26 weeks I love to cook pork and chicken on my Kk.

[Tucker]

That's allot of butts each week!

Sure you aren't that doctor Kramer spoke of on a Seinfeld episode?

That’s not counting beef chicken ribs and sides

You want the grill to be ventilated to some extent so condensation doesn't become an issue with swinging temps. It can become waterlogged over extended periods if things are tightened down too much. Don't ask me how I know.

I highly recommend the KK cover.  The sunbrella material is tops in the boating industry and is well worth the price.
