Looking for help on buying a new one, any suggestions where or best price for a new one? Thanks in advance.

Or go buy the lake fork guide's 250 that is only 11k with low hours and warranty if I remember correctly. That's what I'd buy.

(Senior teenager) I have everything that I wanted as a teenager, only 50 years later. I get an allowance every month. I have PU truck and a bass boat, I am blessed.
