Just curious what kind of hrs folks with verados are getting before failure/rebuild?

A customer of mine has twin 250's with almost 5000 hrs. Replaced the original lower units with the 5.44 inch lowers around 1900 hrs. Rebuilt the 5.44's at 4500. One pcm went bad around 2400 hrs. Other than those we have had zero failures. They have excellent compression,no oil leaks, don't burn oil and run as smooth as the day we installed them

Great to know. That means I can hope to see another 4700 hours (or 142 years) out of my 275's.
I really should use my boat more.....
