It's great to have a forum dedicated to my favorite smoker!
I've been using pellet poopers for 8+ years. My first one was a Traeger BBQ125 Executive (that I paid $2K for in 2006!). I still have it, after numerous igniter rod failures and the now currently dead auger motor. Instead of replacing the motor, I bought a YS640 (for just less than $2K, but with all the options, save the comp. cart!). I also had the misfortune of working for Traeger for several months (AZ sales manager). Big oops on my part. Like I said, I've been pooping for quite awhile. 
I'm also really happy to see several friends already here!
Sorry it took me a week to get this first post up. My bad.

Welcome to the forum, and thanks for joining the group! Glad to have you on Team Yoder.
Hello from Lincoln.
welcome...

Welcome from Boston. I used a Traeger Texas (one of the original, US mfr'd ones...) as my intro to pellet smoking quite a few years ago. The YS640 was such a huge upgrade, I can't even really compare the two...forget about the current, Chinese models...not even in the same league...
Glad to see you made the switch!
