Okay. Let me know if you decide to sell again ;)

What made you want to sell it? And can the GG6 handle 6.5" pads? Or are 5.5" pads really better suited for it?

I have. I do not like using the 5" at all with the Flex 3401. Too small to tackle most of a car. The 6.5" Hybrid's are good, but I like using 6.5" CCS pads better.

I guess it depends on the car. I'm just a hobbyist, but I have seen a big benefit to both.

My Challenger has nice, big, flat panels to work those big 6.5" pads and chew through the work fast. But a couple of spots on the hood, near the side mirrors and front and rear bumpers really show the versatility of the 5" pads. The wife's Infiniti has a bunch of curvy panels that the 5" just handles better. So much so, that it's worth removing the bigger plate and putting on the smaller.

Now if I had 2 Flexes, I'd be golden.

Agree 100%. I'm fortunate enough to have 2 Flex's setup all the time with the LC Interchangeable Systems on both. One is a dedicated 4" backing plate and the other a 6". It's really a time saver to be able to run the 6 1/2" pads on the bulk of the large panels and then just grab the 4" running a 4" pad or a Hybrid 5" pad and hit the tight areas. I hope I never have to go back to a single machine again.

That is awesome! I would love to do the exact same thing you have done. Keep one setup for 6.5 hybrids and the other for the 5 inch.

Also, a PE14 would complete my dream setup.
 
I stopped using 6.5 in favor of 5.25 hybrid pads. You get less surface area, but I'd imagine you get a bit more power from the smaller pads.
