How many acres are you needing to cover total. Are you driving to farm or are you using a nurse tank as well?

I have a 1000 gallon 60ft and run 8 to 10 mph. Trust me this will be my third year, after running 5 to 6mph for awhile you be itching to rev it up.

I added a 2000 gallon black tank two years ago that has a full flow float on it that runs from a hydrant with 5 gpm flow rate. I have yet to run out of water yet. But i drive to and from field with sprayer so can take a bit. I usually only put 950 actually in mine. So 950 gallons at 5gpm it takes a little over three hours to get another 1000 gallons. But with starting with 2000 gallons, like i said, i have never run out. Im also lucky if i get 300 acres a day done....
