Finally bit the bullet; Ordered new Griot`s D/A

Dang cheaper on a few other sites, but at least I know I`ll get good customer service with Autogeek.

Not sure I really need this, but the prospect of more "nuts" and less time spent on paint correction, finally overcame my frugalness.

Have had a Porter cable unit for 5-6 yrs, but reviews of the new Griot`s machine convinced me to give it a shot.

Since I`m a cheap *astard, I was looking for a sale, but apparently this doesn`t happen often. Normal price seems to be $129, but then you have shipping ($16 or so) and if I buy from in-state vendor, I get hit for sales tax (SHOPNBC). Finally bought from AutoAnything with free shipping, no tax and a $10 off coupon; Net was $119. Still wish I could have done better, but that`s the best I could find.

Now, just gotta wait for it to arrive. Hope it lives up to expectations.

Hey Jim,

I too have been beating this up. What was the model number/Pn at autoanything?

Thanks!

so I don`t own a GG D/A or a Flex 3401, just a lowly PC. IF (big if at this point) I wanted to upgrade, do I go for the GG, Flex (both D/As) or skip and hit the rotary (Makita 9227)?

If you have a PC, and wanted to upgrade, I wouldn`t bother with another DA. I would go straight to the Rotary. Your PC is just fine.

I owned a Porter Cable DA for 4-5 yrs before I got my new Griot`s. The difference is like Night and Day as far as the power is concerned. This allows me to correct flaws the my old PC couldn`t do, and/or do it much faster.

I would have liked the Flex, but the price is ridiculous.

Not when you consider the power and quality you are getting.
