What kinds of dollars are you talking, or what kind of acres? If you're looking at 500 acres, a well maintained 1480 could easily do the job. But if you're looking at 5000 acres, then a 21/2388 would be more fit for your operation. We just sold a 1480 with a number of updates for $18k, bought a 1688 with a bunch of updates for a little over $30k. You start looking at 2388 might as well add $100k to that price. But from the 1480 to a 2388 they are all basically the same machine. We ran a 20' with the 1480, it needed a 25' because we had to drive too fast with the 20' for it to thresh well, but we didn't have the field tracker. We now run a 30' on the 1688 with no problems.
