Just got back from my dealer ( don't call the cops). He said he heard that they were going to limit the production of the XXL to 1,000 units. Anyone else heard this?<><>He also said he expected the mini max the second week of June. Of course it didn't happen.

    Makes sense since there are probably only a limited amount of customers that would actually buy one.  Perhaps later on it will be a special order item.  Hard to say.  Sounds like they are testing the waters to see how sales go.

    Wouldn't surprise me. What would surprise me is if they actually sold that many. 

    Hmm, wonder what they're going to do about warranty parts if they stop making them.

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    If I came home with one of those the wife would have me curled up inside with the temp on 250 degrees and just leave me cooking.

    badinfluence, you may want to consider a new nest for your mini. Here's the reason they HAVE a new nest...

    As a matter of fact, I think I have a picture of Fidel with Ed Fisher's golf cart at the Eggfest one year!
