Intelligence isn't with many dealer service centers, they often only know how to use a scanner and never check the basics.

Is it an Eco Boost?
Does it have electric fans and are are all of them working?
Can you afford to pay cash for a new vehicle? If not keep what you have and fix it or buy something used that you can afford.
Your not fitting that in a 23' garage unless you trim the motor all the way down and put it diagonal. If that's all the room you have to work with I would go with a 19 footer.
Most likely a Sasquatch.
LOL, not sure how that happened. I ran my old motor in far dirtier water than I have this one so far and I never had that problem with it. I guess the Torque master lower picks up debris easier.
What's wrong with yours? Its only a 2023 model, do the new Nitros wear out that quick?
Get it with the Yamaha SHO.
Fortrex is the most durable that I have used. I keep on as a backup for my Ultrex.
I have the 106SV with the LVS34 and it's a great combo, I would buy it while on sale.
The under temp issue progressively got worse so I pulled the thermostats and found the issue. Tested the thermostats, put it all back together and it gets up to temp fine now.

You really need a jack plate, even if it is just a manual one.
So you have tried adjusting it some then? What is your prop to pad with it all the way down?
I have been fishing for 20 years, I have never had to move from the front or rear deck to land a fish.
Tempest lifts the bow better and runs faster than a Fury does on my boat.
Seems like a solution to a non existing problem.
Where you running a 24 Fury on your 2 stroke and was the motor at the same height? Generally when switching to a 4 stroke you need to drop 1 or 2" of pitch and possibly lower the motor some.
A 20 year old V8 wouldn't compare to a modern one in any of those categories either. A turbo engine is going to have more problems over a 20 year span as well.
3-4' at the most, I don't know why some people use leaders long enough to go into the reel, makes no sense.
Reliability, longevity, easier to work on, and cheaper parts as well.
I don't think Ford is getting rid of the 5.0, 6.2, 6.7 or 7.3 anytime soon.
That Mercury 150 EFI is a very good engine, however if you do repower go Yamaha SHO for sure, get the 175 or even the 150 and you can flash it to a 230hp. More reliable, better performance and...
What size cranking battery do you have now? A group 31 won't fit in that spot?
I see a lot of those in the swimming areas of our local lakes in the summertime.
