I'm looking to buy a totem or 66. Any issues with the totem from 2007 (coil). The 66's are pretty reliable I assume from 06/07. Any input appreciated.

Totem Coils have the least problems out of all of them. But in reality, there weren't many problems with any of them except for the 2-step.

i work at a shop and we've had a kid come in 3 or 4 times now with a totem coil that is constantly leaking oil everytime he rides and it goes dry in the one leg. dunno if its a freak accident in production, but the one guy there dropped the lowers and he said he wasn't terribly impressed by the internals of the totem. He's a fox guy, i'm a marzocchi guy so i'm naturally gonna suggest the 66, esp now that i've seen totem's problems. My friend rides a 66rc2x from 07 and has no problems, and i'm getting a 66 ata 2008 here soon. so take it as you will. just my opinion.
I run a Lyrik solo air, and IMO it feels a lot better than any 66 I have ever tried. I have ridden the 66r, rc,rcx2, but not the rc3. The Totem was having some seal issues, but the coil and solo air versions have generally been holding up well.
