I'm having a hard time with the 260 acres per day bit....how fast was he running and how many hours?  The crew I worked for on custom harvest during college, when we were in Texas, in 600-1500 acre fields, running about 12-14 hours per day at 5-6 mph dumping nearly everything on the go we were consitantly getting just over 1000 acres per day with 5 9600s.  I can't see where we were leaving much on the table, speed, field efficiency, and head width were all pretty much as good as they get, unless you were able to get quite a few more hours of running per day.
