Delta plastics, major supplier of poly pipe, is also working on it. For the here and now, farmers will be buying their own wrap, as there are still only a handful of 7760s running. It probably won't numerically be the most common picker for quite some time, but I do see it picking the most acreage in the near future.
Speaking for myself, I look to run my 96s for one, probably 2 more years. They're paid for and so is the support machinery. If the price of cotton stays up, they'll hold value as the smaller farms will replace their older pickers with them and if it don't, there's not an expensive picker to have to carry.
