I need to make a decision on a 4 stroke motor, tiller/hand steering, in the 15-25 HP range...

Anyone have any preferences, or reasons to choose one vs. another. I'm looking at Mercury, Honday, and Yamaha...but also even Suzuki based on prices and such.

Just wondering if anyone has gone thru this recently, and has any advice on choosing one over the other...yes, I know warranty and ability to get the motor worked on is a concern...other than those, what else helped you make a decision?
