I have been researching for one in the $1000-1500 price point. Wouldn't oppose more if it was getting me that much more.
Mainly want it for auto mapping and side imaging but still want good 2d. 9 inch screen would be nice.
Want to get 5+ years out of it so don't want an old model unless killer deal.

There's a fair bit of talk about it on a number of forums I'm on.
The TI2's came out in 2018, so not super old, but Lowrance does seem to replace/upgrade on a 2-3 year cycle, so something new for 2021 makes sense.
I think you can easily get 5+ years out of any of the electronics being offered these days before they're "obsolete" so to speak. The newest model with the latest and greatest tech is always nice to have, but electronics advance so quickly, you'll be constantly chasing it. Who knows what Lowrance will introduce to replace the TI2, but it'll likely be an evolution, not a revolution. The TI2s are great units, and if they go on sale for a big discount, I wouldn't hesitate to grab one.
