If I remember right you bought a 618 tiller, right? I remember that conversation from a while back. I really like the looks of them too, but I figured a new Tuffy wouldn't run much over $20, where a new Ranger would be what, 40k or better?

\[/QUOTE]

Nope, actually bought a used 690 Tiller.  Rare boat and screaming deal, so I had to jump on it.  The 618T is the design that I referred to as the one that I don't care for what they went to.  I am not brand specific either.  If I find what I want/like/can afford, I could care less what it says on the sides.   that said, I did check out Mike's 1760 tiller a couple years ago, and really liked it.  If they would have had a shorter deck and wider side tanks on that rig, one would be in my garage.  Will be interested in seeing the 2008 rigs when out and about this year. Good luck in your search and pestering of manufactuers.  It can only assist me in a few years when I decide to upgrade...hehehe.[/QUOTE]
