For those who bought them, how is everyone liking the new X-190? I've been very interested in this boat since it came out, but figured I'd wait a little bit to see how everyone likes them. My truck has the 4.3L in it, so the X-190 is about the biggest boat I could comfortably pull w/o straining my motor/tranny.

I've owned four X-190's since they came out and I absolutely love it! I fish a variety of waters for a variety of species that include lakes from 100 acres to thousands of acres. The 190 is a very versatile boat that when in rougher water it'll get me to and from wherever I'm going but allows me to fish those lake X's. The boat runs great with a 150 Optimax and a single axle trailer but really flies with a 200 Optimax.

Another big plus for the X190. When it came out it was a ideal dream boat for me. Finally bought one this past winter (TJ's Boat from last year). It handles and performs like I imagined. I would not hesitate to buy another one just like it. Great ride, comfortable fishing, great DRY storage and easy to pull. The only thing that I would have liked a touch different with this model is if the consuls they molded over the front deck by 3"-4". It would not effect storage at all but would provide just that touch more room if you have all 4 seats in it. But that is just in my situation that would be nice. The rear deck extension is a major plus. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another.
