I disagree. It's all relative to how many acres you're doing. For his acres, there is no way he needs to spend $40k.

Plenty of good heads to be had for less than 20k. I own two 8 row case ih 1083 heads, both in good working order with poly snouts, and have less than $10k in them put together. Been running one of them for 10 years now - bought the other one to have a cheap backup, but it works fine too. Granted, he needs a newer head than those, but there are lots of 2408s and 3408s out there for 10-15k. I'm going to be upgrading my 2388 before next year, so I'll get to get a different corn head, and I damn sure won't be spending over 20k on one. I run about 400 acres of corn a year.
