I bet cha a sody pop that you can get an HB for less than MSRP.

Since BPS appears to be HB's biggest retailer, go try it there. If HB has their way, you won't be able to buy them for less. Get em while you can.

do you think Lowance doesn't already do that, where have you been?

I have owed a Humming Bird and now have a Lowrance, to me there is no comparison, love the Lowrance. As far as customer support I haven't needed it, been working perfect.:D

J_row, he teaches classes, goes to events for HB, just the same as Doug. He seemed to be trying to put up an impartial comparison of both units.

Doug, Tmike, and some guys that sell HB units turned it into a retarded pissing contest. You're not going to get honest opinions from salesmen and Sponsored guys like doug and tmike. It ended up being a witch hunt, and caused a lot of ill feelings on both sides.

I'm glad, and confident that the same thing will not happen here with Cane Pole doing the work. He's a straight shooter that doesn't take any BS. I look forward to seeing it. I made the switch to HDS after seeing images and talking to CC.com members that have switched. The Lowrance GPS was enough by itself for me to switch. The Donut frustrated me to no end.

I have seen his post on both HB & Low and you can tell he is 100 percent behind the Low product. I have also seen the pictures he has posted from his so call HB unbiased opinions and can tell the difference in a sell job. I am very new at Side Imaging and DI and my shot that I take with my little ole 798 make his HB shots look like crap. So is he being a square shooter,,, I very much doubt it from the shots he has posted. I am not a die in the wool HB fan as I have owned both. But I am not going to switch back to a Low just because some one says his product is the greatest and mine is crap. My opinion is that both do a great job at helping fisherman find fish and that is the bottom line on each product. If you like your product that is fine , but don't try to change my mind on my product by posting crap for pictures just because you are biased toward your product.

Yes I don't think that Lowrance FORCES dealers to charge MSRP, and threatens to drop them if they sell below. In fact I would stake almost anything I have on it.

Almost every company has an MSRP, but forcing dealers to use it, that typically does not happen, and is not enforced.
