| Our first SP sprayer was a JD 6500 with WFE & front fold boom. We farm approx 2,500 ac so was covering about 6,000 ac a yr with it, including some fall spraying. Good machine but ride was a little rough, cab was noisy than I expected, and I seemed to go thru 400 gal pretty quick, even @ 10gpa. Was fairly inexpensive to operate and had very little repairs in the 4-5 yrs we owned it. Machine is lightweight & we could spray a day or two sooner after a big ain than the guys with big sprayers could. Tires are narrow so it does little damage in narrow rowed crops, for two yrs I sprayed 20" corn running with the rows with it and even sprayed some 15" corn running with the rows. For your size of operation I think a 6700 would be a great fit. | |
