No idea on the answer to your questions, however based on our recent experience, be careful to find out what your options are for repairs. If the factory is near you & they'll do repairs, you're good. But if the factory is in California and you live east of the Mississippi where there are no dealers closer than 3 hours through Chicago traffic, you may want to reconsider!
