There is nothing quite like the roar of a Mercury-manufactured engine reverberating off the water's surface. The premier brand has consistently set the benchmark for outboard motors, and in 2023, it's poised to rock the boat yet again with its newest model – the Mercury Outboard Motor 14000029A 400XXL Verado.
The powerhouse of the 2023 fleet, this Cold Fusion White outboard motor falls into the 400 Plus Horsepower category, providing the kind of strength that leaves other motors in its wake. The combined muscle of its Inline-6 engine and 400HP is certainly impressive, but it's the model's added features that make it truly exceptional.
For starters, the model has an Advanced MidSection (AMS) and a Supercharged air induction system with charge air cooling and electronic boost pressure control. Both these features ensure the motor operates under peak conditions even when pushed to its limits. Emphasizing further on performance, the 2023 model is equipped with a Sequential multi-port electronic fuel injection (EFI) system for efficient fuel intake. Even the ignition system adopts SmartCraft Digital Inductive technology for consistent functioning.
Apart from performance, the 2023 Mercury Outboard Motor prioritizes convenience. Its Electric Start system is bolstered with SmartStart Protection, and the gear shift options provide easy handling with Forward-Neutral-Reverse settings. Mercury has fitted an integrated wet sump lubrication system, further enhancing the engine's convenience and performance.
Control-filled with Digital Throttle & Shift (DTS), Electro-hydraulic power steering, and optionally available Joystick Piloting for Outboards, the newest Mercury ensures that the helmsman is in charge —always. And if that's not enough, the Gearcase ratio of 1.75:1 ensures an efficient power transmission to propel the boat faster and with more stability.
Sure, it's powerful, but the Mercury 400XXL Verado isn't all brawn and no brain. Compatible with SmartCraft digital technology, it has a SmartCraft Engine Guardian system, providing continuous protective monitoring to keep your day on the water hassle-free. The 30” shaft length and SmartCraft programmable trim and tilt provide the operator with improved control and maneuverability.
In sum, the 2023 Mercury Outboard Motor 14000029A 400XXL Verado Cold Fusion White is some serious on-water machinery. It's no surprise that it is pegged as one of 2023's must-haves in terms of marine propulsion technology. From its engine power to its advanced technological features and undeniable comfort, Mercury is once again reminding us why they're atop the outboard motor pecking order.

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,
See Dealer Cost™ Team Members
