Thanks to everyone here for advice and suggestions on saws. I ordered the Craftsman 22116 hybrid today after taking a look in the store. With the Craftsman club and online ordering discounts and a couple of others, I ended up paying $702.
It should be here in a week, I'll post my thoughts after I get it put together!

It looks like the 22124 I had except the 22116 has a granite top and a riving knife.

The 22124 I had was a very good saw. Top was flat, great fence and enough power. I added a Shark Guard to it for better dust collection at the blade.

Only reason I sold it was to get a SawStop - grandson starting to come in the shop.

Have fun, make sawdust, and be safe.

Thanks all, I'm looking forward to having something higher quality. The wife wants a Hoosier cabinet, so that's one of the first projects planned.

Congrats. It looks like a decent saw for the money spent. It looks to have a good fence and solid fence rails. Should do everything you ask of it.
