 Mudbuddy manual trim
I have manual trim and was wondering if it was worth it to get the auto trim kit. It's on sale for 750 now. Is it worth it?

Only YOU can determine how much something is worth to YOU.

 Re: Mudbuddy manual trim
I think it depend on what model you have if you can even put it on there , don't the mini's will acept it , but I'm sure you can find a sweet spot with it , instead of turning a knob while your running.

 Re: Mudbuddy manual trim
Yea I've got the hd hunter. There's a button and everything already on there for upgrading. I just don't know if I can justify getting that much money out of it. it would be nice if it would trim down further than the manual will let it go.

 Re: Mudbuddy manual trim
I've got one and glad I do. I'm runnin in water that tends to change depth a fair amount, and nice to be able to trim on the fly. $750 seems pricey, though, to me. How often do you need to/want to change the tilt?

 Re: Mudbuddy manual trim
I have it on my 5500 MB and love it. Use it all the time. Had a short a while back and it quit working. Sucked without it.

 Re: Mudbuddy manual trim
And charlieboy. Why are you changing the trim while your riding. Set it in the sweet spot and go with it. Only reason to trim down is in the nasty stuff. This aint an outboard
