Is there much difference between Reeflo hybrids and gold pumps?

I also believe the gold has a better seal, I have 2 darts, one has the big baldor motor and one has the smaller finned baldor motor(I believe it's the same as the gold motor), both are excellent pumps, the hybrids I've seen have a an even smaller AO Smith motor, personnally I don't like that motor. I would get the regular Dart, I don't think the gold is worth an extra 130 clams.
However, they seem to be constantly changing things up and you don't always get what you see on a website, so maybe get an actual pic or see for yourself.
Love my darts.
