Now put it on a ripper in the fall and you can triple that so now you are at over $1500 for fuel.

$5600 (Ez 250/Ez Steer)/$1500=3.75 years.  Not too  bad eh?

 Lets see your math on the ripper. If a guy has 4200 acres to get over (my example) I doubt he's running a single $5600 EZ setup either.

again, you never said you only had 3 acres to cover.  point is it will pay for itself in fuel, each person will be different.  hats off to you for running 2 foot on a 50 ft FC all day.  Lot of guys get some older guys to run stuff and they are not that good.  So if it don't save YOU that much thats fine, but it DOES for some.

I'm not sure where you got the 3 acres to cover part. Also, plug in your 3 foot overlap number if you like. Still not going to pay for itself in fuel savings alone. A simple point I made. That was all.
