PKing,

It is good to read some success stories from the testosterone side of the fence. There are way more ladies on this forum. Nothing wrong with that, just less that is specific to guys.

Now I just need a decent source for real Organic Raw Almonds....

I got a hold of Blendtec customer service and they emailed me the details. I tried it with okay results, but some work involved with starting, messing and restarting (over and over):

Unfortunately there is no XL Smoothie button on the BT Total Blender. If there is a trick better than hitting Smoothie twice, please let me know.

Still using both in comparisons and though leaning toward Vitamix 5200, it is not a slam dunk. One thing I notice that is bugging me. The Vitamix cavitates like crazy. You have to play with High,...

Will try the XL button tonight. Thanks!

Ok, received my Blendtec today and now have both products to compare. I did the following:
