Western illinois
just demoed a 24'. put it on a 7240 mfwd and couldn't pull it
like i wanted. 10th gear and not deep enough to cut stalks well.
i would say 300 hp for a 30' at least. they pull hard.

Thats kinda what i figured. I just noticed that you can buy a 30ft used cheaper than a more narrow one. Thanks.

We sometimes rent a 12' TT. We've got it on a 160HP 2WD tractor. It' pulls it fine, but it knows it's back there. I'd say Bill is pretty close.... 300HP and 8 wheels pulling it.

We have pullled ours with a dt200A, and noticed a neighbor pulling one with a 9190 granted you cant pull it quite as fast as 350 hp but you can pull it.

Modena, Wisconsin

General rule is 10 HP per foot here and then you need enough weight also. A 4020 turning 120 would not have the weight to pull a 12 footer unless dead level and it had duals and weights.

An 18ft pulls our Deere 8235R really hard in the rolling hills, we thought that it would pull really easy but it turns out to take a lot of hp.

Neighbor has a 30ft on a 8320R with front duals and say they wouldnt want any less tractor to pull it at the speed you are supposed to run em at 8+ mph. I ran a 22ft on a 8245R 2 yrs ago, it wasnt big enuff, was ok on flat, but any hills at all you were at 5.5 or less.

10 hp/ft sounds right. I can pull a 20'with a 7810 but it will churn on a grade unless conditions just right. No duals. Prefer to use 4960 w/ duals if it's available.

Our 30 ft will make our 8320R's cry at 8mph, the 8360R will pull it as fast you want. It doesn't look like it would be a hard pull, but it is a load

Buy the 30' and remove couple of outside shanks. Spare parts for later.

the 10hp per foot would be more for the landalls and such
our 30 foot TT we were told around 8 per foot
have a 230 hp 846 Versi pulls easy!

the turbo till will pull harder than a landoll or a case 330. our neighbors had a 30 footer and they said it gutted their 305 magnum. they got a case 330 and said it pulls it good. we tried a 24 footer on our 8110 with a 30% chip and it wasn't enough power for the hills.
