I disagree about the long service intervals. 300 to 400 hours is too long to wait to change gear oil or fuel filters, not to mention water pumps. Especially on a consumer/ pleasure use engine that gets run hard and then sits up, many get less than 100 hours of use per year. My 2010 150 has less than 300 hours and is on it's third water pump.
I agree with Spare about the market share. Sometimes makes you feel like the dodge truck at the Chevy show.
