I started farming with one of these, after a few years I went with a used JD 7000 8-30. It worked for me, it has been a long time, but I could have had trouble with the markers raising and lowering, shearing off pins on the fertilizer drive, and I think they have an odd size chain for the drive. If you are planting a food plot or just a few acres it should work for you. I can't remember how many acres I could plant in a day, A fill of fertilizer planted 10 I remember. I was a young buck then and didn't mind all the extra work. I don't miss changing plates. It might not work very good if you have alot of trash and hard ground. It will need soft ground to plant in. $600 seems high, but then if it has been shedded all the time and not abused it is always worth alot more. I have one of these plus a 6-30 in the grove (parts missing), worth scrap prices I'm sure, Brian(MN)
