If you haven't owned one, IMO, you're talking out of your azz.

We do not see to many issues with the 150 group. 06’ had plenty issues with injectors, primarily in the 225,HO’S,and 250’s. the 150 hp group seems to be pretty solid. If needed I can get you the warranty history on them; I just need serial and model numbers.

Depends on where you live. Go to Florida and you will see a lot of Mercury motors.

I am up here at Lake Murray and the SCDNR Wildlife boats have the big Etecs hanging on the back of them. For whatever that is worth

I would be curious to find out what problems you had with yours? I had an 05 90 etec that ran as advertised. Seemed decent while I owned it, the low oil useage on xd-100 was very nice as well. Guess I should be glad I was able to sell the rig?
