| I've yet to hear of any problems with the 175 Opti's. The problems were with the 200/225's. The Opti will be easier on fuel and oil, won't smoke, and will start every time with just a turn of the key. That Johnson is carbed, will smoke unmercifully, gobble gas and oil, and will be cold blooded when it gets cold.
As far as the boat itself? Undoubtedly, Ranger is a better built boat. But I think you should look at the condition of each boat, and try to decide from there. The newer boat with the Opti should be worth more, depending on condition and accessories.
