Here's another TM question for ya. I'm looking at upgrading my current TM and had been looking at the 71# 24V variable speed MotorGuide (FW71FB). Well after seeing a bunch of bad reviews on BassPro I wanted to get more feedback. My other choice has been a MinnKota Edge but I would really like to get the variable speed.

I currently have a 52# 12v Motorguide that came factory on my 17' Tracker Targa WT. It has worked flawless and I'm used to the cable steer but would like to have a little more sustainable power. My only complaint is with the 5 speed there are big "gaps" between speeds and many times I wish there was a gear in between so that's why I would prefer to get a variable. I would love to get a much nicer TM but I know it won't happen anytime soon.

Any experiences, hear-say, or what ever else you got is appreciated.
