Lets work out the install too...

[YankeeClipper]

One shop just estimated an install (without of course ever having had an opportunity to perform one) right back at 40k. So not an "affordable alternative"... just a digital one.

YankeeClipper: Check with another Genesys dealer, $40K seems at least several thousand $ too high. That would work out to about $14K of install labor to reach $40K.

Ryann: Can I share your estimate amount? Or do you want to share it?

Cory, feel free. You're in a better position than I am to talk about the factors that go into the installation and labor.

STEC (Genesys) 3100 337 Parts Cost for a new install is $25995, which is listed in the email Ryann posted from Barry at Genesys. My shop has a flat rate of 20 hours per servo and 10 hours for the controller and other pieces. My shop rate is currently $135/hr. Thats puts my install costs at $9450 and a 10% shop consumable fee. Ryan's estimate total is $36,390. If anybody has any questions, please feel free to call: 541-507-1007

Cory, would that be based on a 3 axis install that replaces a legacy (eg ARC) AP?
