I agree that any of the smaller V-6 Mercs will burn less gas than the old cross-flow OMC's, so would be a good choice if you can manage corrosion issues. I bought my V-4 in 1975 because there were lots of 20 year old Johnrudes running around then but I never saw any Mercs more than about 5 years old.
