"In our opinion, cost of operation will prove to be less for an E-TEC
in the long run."

And that was using XD-50, not XD-100 which give ETEC even more
efficiency in oil consumption by a factor of 20.

You guys can't win - I win every time.

YOU DROOL - I RULE!!!


LOL, that is the stupidest link showing cost of operation I have ever
seen. The whole premise of that link assumes you actually use the boat.

If you don't use it, (or use it 25 hrs a year) there will not be any of
this supposed "cost savings".

YOU LOSE. HAH!!!!!!!!

I haven't owned an OB since 1986, and that was a 1972 125 hp Johnson.
Now that was one nice Johnson, and fuel and oil consumption was not a
problem.

You buy the fuel, you put in the oil, no problem.
