The one very broad terminal leaf segment on your newest petiole is wider than any of my segments, but the rest are very similar.
Seems to have the same greyish trunk and black tomentum (spaced apart) that mine does.

No wonder I got this topic heading so fouled up initially.

My vote is Foxtail (Wodyetia.)

Anybody else?

The local Home Depot was offering what they called Foxtail (Wodyetia) and they looked different from this palm, but who knows if HD know. They were on sale cheap (US$30) but W said no way. :x
