[Elecraft] K2 vs. KX3 which would you get?

[AE7UTE at gmail.com]

I'm a fairly new Ham and want a nice portable rig.
I've read all the threads I can find on the K2 vs. KX3 and I'm pretty sure
I'm
going to get a KX3 but before I finalize my order I thought I'd see if you
guys
think a K2 would be a smarter choice.  I would buy a used K2 or build a new
KX3.
I have little to no time to build a K2.

I want a portable rig to take camping and occasionally to the beach or on
trips.
I'd say I'll have a deep cycle battery available if I want to lug it along
for camping,
but I'd rather use an internal battery.

I've been using a ZS6BKW or a YO-YO inverted V configuration for an antenna.
Mostly working 20, 40, 80 meters.
I do a mix of 50/50 CW SSB.  I've been taking my Ten-Tec Scout or Eagle so
far.

Any input would be much appreciated.
