so as you know I put a deposit on a 19 ar240 but toight I was playing on their website and noticed they have an 18 AR240 and an 18 Limited S still in stock. I would think I can get the :Limited S closer to the price of the 19 AR240. I think the only difference between them is the nozzle design and reverse bucket. What do you think? Should I save a few thousand and go with the 18 or stick with the 19 ar240 with the new design?
 
I’m not sure. There’s quite a few things different between the AR and Ltd S models. (Not just 18-19)

Different tower
Sound system
Wash down shower
Docking kights
Upholstery

But, hey all they can tell you is no, so go for it! :)

Between the 18 and 19 AR240, I think you’re right. Might not be enough difference in features to make a difference, so go for the cheaper. :)

Good luck! Keep us posted either way and post pics!
