Did a lot of research about 3 years ago regarding the E-tech vs. other 4 strokes and what I gathered is as follows:

- Almost as quit as a 4 stroke
- Better hole shot than a 4 stroke
- Good on emissions, not the old 2 stroke smell
- No break in period
- Fuel economy not quit as good as a 4 stroke, but close
- First service at 300 hours, that says a lot right there in my opinion.
- Great warranty

Basically, after reading some of the testimonials on other forums I was sort of leaning toward an E-Tech or a Suzuki 4 stroke. The major issue I had with both was the limited service around the lake.

But if you ever have an issue with the E-Tech and Reed cannot fix it there is a gentleman down in Tallassee (have his name and number somewhere) that is the whos who of both the E-Tech and Suzukis.

I would be interested as I am sure would others on your thoughts regarding the E-Tech after a year or so and heck even after your Dads first month of operation. I am guessing he will be very happy.
