On other:  You never built extension tables around your current saw?

I could have built them, but the rails the fence ride on are too short. After upgrading the fence a few years ago I wasn't dumping more money into a saw with no dust collection ability, a 25 years old motor and one that is hard as hell to change the blade angle on. Nope..time to move on. Now i could have bought a used saw for quite a bit less, but they too are heavy and I'm past the age of moving 500 pounds of steel and iron off the back of my truck.. I no longer have steel toed boots and ain't gonna get them just to move a used saw either.. I want a new saw delivered to my shop. I'll do all the setup. I've done all that before. 
I've leaned heavily toward Sawstop, but I still want a cabinet saw and the least expensive option they have is almost $3000. I can get a new Grizzly for $1750 with a 240 V motor, 52" rip capacity and the Grizzly name which is pretty well regarded as well, just without the SS technology.. I don't plan on chopping off the ends of any fingers again any time soon..
