Does the 8010 have enough hp when you are pulling that planter in no-till? looks like you have the traction side covered.

you can't plant...standing behind the planter!!! I plant 6-row 30" now, but when i used my 8-row wide, it was a 3-pt mounted 8-row ac, on my 180, then had 600 gallon saddle tanks mounted on the 180. worked great, pulled in 3rd gear about 1800 rpm's. now i don't spray anything at planting.

Looks like you don't need much h.p. in that flat ground! Come here to central Ky. with that rig on our rolling hills and red clay. Great picture!

Done planting April 21st. The floods this past weekend revised that to 1/2 done.
Gorgeous 8010 you have there!

There isn't much a WC can't do.
WD's just do it better.
