What's up on the Etecs anyhow...see a lot of people bashing them... but has anyone ever had one? I would run the suzuki behind it but just curious as to why not ETEC....personally i like the clip of how the ETEC sinks the overweighted and low torque yamaha. I'm not hating on Yamaha...they make some dam good motors and i'm a proud owner of one.

YouTube- Evinrude E-TEC Sinks Yamaha 4-Stroke

Start this one at 3 min:

YouTube- Evinrude E-tec vs. Yamaha: Hole Shot
I have an E-TEC & not a problem(knock on wood), have a 5 year warranty also, 2 stroke "get up & go" with 4 stroke fuel milage (pretty darn close anyway), Didn't care about buying one when I was looking, couldn't pass up the deal I got on the boat & motor. I love it. I hear alot of negative things about them, haven't found one E-TEC owner yet that wasn't satisfied. Like asking Chevy or Ford, you'll get different answers.

BTW.......Owned 2 yamaha 150's & loved them, Have had a couple Mercs also w/o a problem
