My old Lowrance Units crapped out on both my boats. They were about 5 years old and almost 10 years old.
Lowarnce gave me no discount or "upgrade" for my old units-they said they were "too old" to qualify for discount/upgrade. That sorta pee'd me off, so I started looking at garmin, but on the Web was so many different versions (w/o transducer, with transducer, with such and such base map, etc.-geez, why make it so tough or confusing as to what comes with a unit-after all, WTF good is a depthfinder w/o a transducer-just farging dumb), that pee'd me off, so I decided to go back to Lowrance and got me 2 Elite 7 HDI units. I don't want a 8" transducer (it'll just break),so I dint want the HDS 7 or 8 with "Structure Scan".
Anyway, installed on both boats and ready to try em out. If they don't last 5 years, expect some blogging about what a POS Lowrance is.
