Default American Flyers... Part 61 or 141?

I just got off the phone with one of the representatives at AF. She quoted me $4,000 for part 61, which is the same as part 141 though you have to schedule all of your checkrides with the FAA. She also quoted me $6,000 for part 141, the only difference being that they give you your CFII endorsement and let you schedule the CFI-A by yourself but also give you 10hrs of dual in addition.

My question is how bad is the scheduling with the FAA/FSDO? Does it take months to get a spot with an examiner? Is the 2k worth it? All responses are appreciated
