If you were in the market for a rig and your budget only allowed for a few year old, lower time, but no engine warranty rig, what would be the max you’d be willing to spend.

How many dirt daubers come with it?

No more than half of your yearly income, and only if you pay cash for it. Obviously not way more than it is worth either.

Too many variables rig to rig.

Could be anywhere from 7000 to 45000 way to many variables.
Whatever the market will bare.
Depends on the brand of motor, the year, and what my mechanic says about it after an inspection.
"The man of system is apt to be very wise in his own conceit; and is often so enamored with the supposed beauty of his own ideal plan of government that he cannot suffer the smallest deviation from any part of it…He seems to imagine that he can arrange the different members of a great society with as much ease as the hand arranges the different pieces upon a chessboard.” Adam Smith, The Theory of Moral Sentiments
Engine warranty would not affect my decision. Engine hours and boat condition would be the deciding factors.
2024 Phoenix 818, Mercury 175 (3B414035) Trick Steps, 3 Garmin 106 SV,s, LVS 34. BoatEFX dual bow mount. Ionic 12V 125AH, 2 12V 100 ah LiTime’s with Blue tooth for the TM. Minn Kota 345 PCL charger, Minn Kota Quest TM.
For me in that case I'd buy a slightly older boat with a clean hull for much cheaper. Then if the motor popped a week into ownership could repower.
I don't trust used anything much because I see how well people take care of things.
Have bought used with couple years warranty still. Have bought used with no warranty. FWIW I've bought new as well. Current boat is 1998 Skeeter. Bought at good price and when I had a rebuilt engine put on , I felt like I still had a good boat. And that was 5 years ago. Can get more, not a lot more, than I paid for it.
So it depends on a lot of factors but I do like toys that are paid for.

Take a look at the boat. Take a look at the owner. Have a reputable dealer run the numbers on the outboard. Should tell you all you need to know.
Depends

This goes for me too. My max would probably be 25k, but a cream puff with good electronics could get me to 35-40k. Once over 40, might as well go to 60
