I have the 8 ft 4 wt and loved it too, until it started slipping at the ferrule. Then, after tightening it once too many times, and too hard, the female end developed small cracks. Gotta send it back for repair now. We'll see how that goes.
However, aside from my blunder (you should use ferrule wax - not force for a loose connection), it is an awesome rod. Very slow and smooth and I was surprised to find that I could do more than just dry fly fish with it. It nymphs real well too and has the backbone for big fish. The cigar grip was the only thing about it that I didn't like but that's not a big deal.
I think, therefore I fish.
