Yes, I like the coulters in front of the drill better than the JD single disk no-till drills. I also like the pivot on the hitch, which tends to keep the drill openers in the coulter slot when driving on a sharp radius (curve). I looked at GP drills, but did buy a JD 520 and coulter cart pretty cheap. I screwed around too long and lost the chance to buy a 20 ft GP like yours at a similar modest price. Still had the problem with out-of-slot seeding on curves, so added a second tool bar and row of coulters to the cart. This tills enough to solve the problem. However drilled beans are going out of favor around here. Split planters were all the rage, but 30 inch beans are staging a modest comeback on the better ground. Splitters and drills are still champion on the poor soils.
