Default CNC Router suggestions?

Working on a project that looks like it will require a CNC
router. 5'x10' table, x-y with plunge
z will work. Plastic sheet, around 40 ft. tool path,
20,000-30,000 pcs per year.

There are a LOT of CNC router tables out there!!!! A quick
search turns up Shop-bot,
Shop Sabre, Warthog, Multi-cam, and a bunch of others. All
of them seem to indicate
that they are the best.

Anybody have a favorite? Any of them to avoid like the
plague? Any sources for good used machines? We will go
new--looks like around 20K will be a good start---but a
couple of
solid 5-10K used machines sitting face-to-face has some
appeal.

Thanks,

Bill
