It was I that posted about the HS Vanguard. $7199 included the cover, steps, start up chems, delivery and setup which I assume includes hooking up electrical to a preinstalled box. I paid $250 extra for the lifter. After tax, I walked out the door at $7958.44. I'm not sure what silver is, and I didn't get lifetime filters. Are they worth $941.56? This is in a town of 30,000 in Arkansas. Sounds like youu could bring 'em down a bit.
