Default Tesoro Cibola opinions wanted

I was going to sell my White's Classic III but decided to keep it because I like using it so much. I just bougt a Fisher CZ 6a from by brother in law. It is in great shape & works excellent but is heavy compared to the other detectors I have used. Actually makes my wrist hurt. Anyways I am either going to keep it over the winter and try it out next year soon as it is nice enough to or sell it in eBay or trade it in to a dealer on a new machine. I have read that the CZ 6a is a really good detector able to go to great depths and pretty accurate target id. I was offered a pretty decent trade in by one of the big time dealers. I have been reviewing the Tesoro Cibola and it looks like a good unit. I would appreciate everyone's input on this detector (pro's & con's). Hey Tony if you would be interest in the CZ 6a let me know it's trade in value to you and what you think would be as good of a detector as the CZ 6a. I really like White's products but like they say! I would try anything once! Thanks! Steve. Almost forgot I only hunt for coins and rings on schools grounds,parks,playgrounds,etc. no beach hunting.

Its a very good machine for the money but I would check if in your area the Vaquero, which is the same thing with an added ground control, might not be more suitable. Its only a little more expensive and could save you an upgrade a few months down the line.
It would also get more performance out of any accessory coil you buy in the future.
