Have you checked out the Sundance Maxxus. It's around the 10K+ range though. But definitely a large tub. In fact the biggest that Sundance makes. Good Luck

Dog.......go out and look at the Coleman line of spas.....wonderful values, great warranties........and they are nice hot tubs too.  The Claifornia Cooperage fits into the $5000.00 range with the 107 costing slightly more than that....it has lots of room for a big dog to roam.

Don't know if someone menitioned Nordic. They are in the price range that Bigdog is talking about, but alas, I belive Nordic has changed (upgraded  ;)) to insulating thier tubs with foam.....

OK, the Hot Springs Grandee looks like it would fit most of my needs.  Whats a good price, and does anyone know of similar spas?

Check with your local HS dealer, see if they've got a leftover '06 model that they want to move. You can get a bit better deal on that than on the current model. I've got an '06, I paid around $8k for it, but I'm in the midwest, so our pricing is probably way different...Also, if you find that you don't like that particular dealer, don't be against finding a different brand that has a dealer willing to do backflips for your business. In the end, you'll get a spa that fits your needs AND a dealer that'll back you up.
Good luck!!

Big Dog- I don't think Artesian was mentioned yet.  I have an Artesian Piper Glen which runs about 10K, but that is Artesian's Platinum line, they also have the Island Series and those tubs cost less.  Artesian seems to be gaining momentum in the market and from what people told me online here prior to buying, it's also considered one of the top brands.  Not sure if there are any dealers by you.

If you like to soak primarily, try a Beachcomber 378 BLE. They have a development center in Vista. It's a very roomy tub and with it's hush pump it will skim off and filter over 40,000 water a day. A 580 will give you some more jets and the 738 even more. All of these tubs are 89" x 89" x38" so it's your choice. With the 378 you should be just around $5000- $5500. Take the time to check it out.

Dog, that's a great price for the Vanguard. Did you have a chance to wet test?

$6960 all in... nice!   I am also in CA and just got quoted $8,400+ for a '07 Vanguard all in - delivery, setup, steps, cover, lifter, panel, and start up chems.   Looks like I need to do some more shopping.

I'm in Tucson looking for a Vanguard and the local dealer wants $9000 for an '07 and $8500 for an '06.  It seems I should be doing a little negotiating.

That Can't be right?  Can it?  If so, you need to sign the paperwork FAST before your dealer realizes his error.  Even the guys getting the best deals are paying something like $800 more for those.
