Re: MERCURY or YAMAHA VOTE PLEASE
The only way a question is silly is if you already know the answer to it .I could have stated hp,year.I just thought it would be understood that they would be equal year, hp whatever.I just wanted to know what opinions here were about different brands and their reliability.Just what your experiences have been.Just wanted to take a poll and see which one would come up the most .I think that the comment about blondes or brunettes is silly .Can you talk about which one of those is more dependable.Thank away though.
You realize of course that in most things (and probably this one) there is no such thing as "best". Every choice is made on the basis of making both objective and subjective evaluations of a bunch of different factors and weigh them according to one's personal preferences. Objectivity is theoretically there, but it's mostly subjective. Especially the way you asked your question.
For example, you stated "reliability" above, yet in your original question you did not limit it to that. For me, "reliability" is indeed very important, but if all engines pass a certain threshold of "pretty darn reliable, very little difference", then I'll go to my other important factors such as price, local support and weight.
Plus, it actually is a pretty silly question because if you'd bothered to reading through the forums a little more before posting that question, you'd actually would see how many times this sort of question's been asked and how very lengthy discussions always (always) boil down to personal preference, not anything remotely resembling "best".
OK, you don't like "blond or brunette". How about: what color is best: Black, blue gray or white?
