Have you stopped to consider loader and other chore tractors that run the better part of the day 365 days a year? On the other hand, I have a 1975 Deere 8630 that I bought when it was several years old, with 1882 hours on it. Now, it has 11,800 hours, and I haven't used it since 1997, when I rented the farm out. It racked those hours up doing heavy tillage 6 months out of the year. It will burn as much as 15 GPH doing heavy tillage, and that is a fraction of what today's BIG tractors can burn. So, what's so bad about 6.5 GPH???
