Cripes. 11 gallons per hour? 8 on the diesel. Now I know it's a deere. You could easily run a 400 Cummins on that kind of fuel. If it was me I'd be looking at the old massey with the 354 perkins. Cheaper to buy, and then you could at least afford to run the thing. Man... I can run a turned up Ford 7710 (about 105 hp) balls to the wall, chopping silage all day long on 4 gph. I gotta be honest. I've never understood the economics of buying a Deere. They might be good tractors, and last.... but they cost more up front in most cases, and they've got a habit of consuming about 25% more fuel than most of their competition. Even if you sell it for more in the end, it still doesn't compute. Dunno. Whatever makes a guy happy I guess.
