The Brown truck delivered my black AT Pro yesterday, and assembly was easy, the water tight connectors were a little tough with my big fingers, but all went well. My initial negative (and only negative) was it is not as well balanced as my GTI 2500, but I can live with that.
The machine seems to be well made and a good waterproof companion to the 2500.

The biggest difficulty is waiting for the sun to rise to get out in a test plot to learn the sounds!:happysmiley:

Thanks Wayne for your help, and the nice "goody"!

First, congrats on the new machine! Secondly, with the smaller 5x8 dd, it does feel more balanced and is alot lighter. Lastly, get out there and start swing'n!

In that case, i highly recommend it. Its also nice to get both the middle and lower shaft to make swapping coils way easier. Plug and play!

Got my 5x8 the other day. Way better balance, I scored just as many finds as with the 8.5x11, I love it!!like Jay said extra lower rod, is the way to go, quick change over, no hardware, to mess with
