The boating world awaits every new rendition of outboard motors with bated breath, given how fundamental these machines are to the experience of water-based adventures. This year is no exception, and one that has particularly grabbed my attention is the Mercury Outboard Motor 1F9145TED 90ELHPT SeaPro Command Thrust Tiller 2023. Engineered to perfection by Mercury Outboard Motors, this state-of-the-art motor is designed to provide boaters with a reliable, powerful, and efficient engine.
Offering a horsepower of 90 or 67 kWs, the 2023 model packs a punch. The engine, an 8-valve single overhead cam (SOHC) and inline 4, is built to deliver uncompromised performance in various water conditions. A notable feature is the displacement of 2.1 liters that facilitates high-speed cruising and operation.
This motor performs optimally at a full-throttle RPM range of between 5000 to 5500, delivering a smooth and constant flow of power that enhances the boating experience. Additionally, this Mercury motor comes with a Performance-Tuned Scroll Intake Manifold, which further improves the motor's overall performance.
What sets this motor apart is its state-of-the-art fuel induction system - a Computer Controlled Multi-Port Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI). This advanced fuel system ensures improved fuel efficiency and reduced emissions, leading to a very environment-friendly profile which earns it the well-deserved CARB star rating of 3.
The motor also integrates the SmartCraft Engine Guardian, a system designed to prevent catastrophic failures. It monitors and manages engine functions, providing instantaneous notifications in case of potential problems. The system plays the crucial role of prolonging the machine's lifespan, a feature that is necessary given the harsh conditions that outboard motors often have to operate in.
The Mercury 1F9145TED 90ELHPT SeaPro Command Thrust Tiller motor also boasts of a Smart Start Electric system, ensuring a smooth, trouble-free start every time. The incorporation of mechanical throttle & shift controls contribute towards an easier and more intuitive operation.
Mercury has also taken the steering aspect into account, providing options including Big Tiller, Dual cable mechanical, and Hydraulic. This versatility allows the users to select a system that suits their comfort, based on their experience and boating preferences. Add to this a Command Thrust gearcase, Power Tilt/Power Trim system, and an efficient oil capacity of 5.5 qts / 5.2l, and we have an outboard motor that excels in every performance metric.
In conclusion, the 2023 Mercury Outboard Motor 1F9145TED 90ELHPT SeaPro Command Thrust Tiller seamlessly combines power, innovative technology, and efficiency, delivering a boating performance that is sure to impress. Given all these features, the tag of 2 - 90 Horsepower assigned by See Dealer Cost is well-deserved indeed. The product is currently listed at an MSRP of 12670, but it's safe to say that it offers excellent value for its price.

When our family wanted to purchase our first boat we tried to find information for research. However the only information available at that time was sales brochures. All of the product information originated from the manufactures. The only price we could find was the retail price listings or MSRP (Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price). Magazines featured articles, and had really great photo layouts, it only offered product description and the (MSRP) retail price.
We went to the dealership where the sales guy held all the cards. The best thing he had going for him was our lack of information. We tried to wrangle on price without any real success. We bought the boat, but we paid too much. After that experience we felt there had to be a better way.
So we started this website because we did not want anyone else to feel disadvantaged like our family did that day. We discussed what we would like to see. We found experts in their fields and started asking questions. We then put together a team to research products and most importantly the dealer price. We started with boats and realized that there was a great need for information on many kinds of large purchase recreational vehicles and products.
Look when you visit a dealership for a boat, motorcycle or camper, if you have not done your research your negotiation for that item will start with the Manufactures Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The highest price you could pay. The sales person will try to see what you know and size you up. If you do not have product knowledge including what the cost was to the dealer – you are going to pay too much.
See Dealer Cost™ offers product information that is in-depth and understandable. You can build your ideal product on line and see what it cost before you walk into a dealership. See Dealer Cost™ gives you the product options and most importantly the cost without the pressure of someone trying to talk you into something.
Knowledge is power.
After you find the product you want on See Dealer Cost™ and configure the options. You can save it to view or reference later. You can also print out what you put together (with the price). In turn you can use this information to negotiate your best deal.
What if the item is used? We are making available all the information we have gathered over the years so you can research to see the original cost. Even on used items you can use our site to negotiate your best deal.
Our passion here at See Dealer Cost™ is to give people power and knowledge. We were at a disadvantage once and we did not like the feeling.
By the way this great idea we had to build a website with this information. We had to fight to be able to bring this information to you. See Dealer Cost™ was supposed to be a one hit wonder. The manufactures magazines that they send to dealers said we would be dead in no time. They pounded their fists on their desks and said the consumer did not want or need this information. They said we would put them out of business. We were sued multiple times by manufacturers for this information. We are still here.
Why would they not want you to be able to see and use this information? They were afraid that you the consumer would be the true winner.
As it turns out – this information has not put anyone out of business. A consumer who is knowledgeable is confident buyer.
So we continue on with our team of experienced and expert people. We constantly update product lines and most importantly the cost so you have information to make your best deal.
We are proud of the team and proud to be able to assist you in your recreational purchase. We do not sell any of the items listed – we just gather the information.
The products include thousands of boats, motors, campers, motorcycles and more. We are constantly working to expand the information we present for you.
We all have families. We hope your buying experience is a better one than our family’s first purchase. Use this website to be a knowledgeable more confident buyer.
We hope we are a valuable resource for you. Enjoy your purchase.
Thanks,
