I have regular old fashioned analog gauges. The two things I'd love to have access too are the fuel economy readings, plus the engine RPM. The prices this guy states kind of threw me back.

The up-front price is the downside of smart craft. If you go with lowrance, the gauge is cheaper, but all the sensors you need to do everything smart craft does would likely cost more in total, and Lowrance is not compatible with your Garmin so you would not have GPS speed with Lowrance.
