[QUOTE="jsmoody, post: 438769, member: 15256"] Fuel burn is low on the list for me if i can get where i want to go. At least if gas prices will stay reasonable. If i burn under $20 on a typical trip thats cheap enough. During the summer i try to make a run about once a week if i can. There are some 150s to be had around im still seeing them pop up. Most clean "looking" motors seem to hover somewhere between 2k and 3k. In yalls opinion is that average or high for a good running 25 yr old 150? As far as boats im still really leaning towards having one built if i can. Theres a local guy that builds some pretty solid flat boats. He prefers to build them at least 60" wide to make the most use out of the aluminum. And he will build anything i can dream up out of .125 or 3/8. And probably priced as well or better than a production boat. Thanks for all the detailed info on the year models. [/QUOTE]
