How badly do you want one?  I bought 3 last year, but we have done some tractor trading and changing of how we do things and have one I really don't need.

It was handy planting male rows.  Not accurate enough to plant by, but did warn you if you were off a row.

The problem I have with the AB lines on these is the free signal is not accurate enough to be consistent. If you set an AB line on one side of the field and go to the other and start back you will be off before you get there.  Using the contour mode, which works off your last pass, accuracy is pretty good. 

Folks who know more than me (that's a BIG list) tell me the only way to get better accuracy is a unit utilizing a subscription service .

As the guy told me when I bought them, you're not going to get any more accurate doing the driving.  They are generally as accurate as my driving abilities.
