I'm trying to wrap my head around this whole thread...
The most important piece of farm equipment is the planter. It's why farmers trade them off or rebuild them on a regular basis.
How could you expect a 35 year old planter to be reliable or even come close to new performance when it can't even produce the minimum air pressure it needs to operate. What else is completely worn out?
As for the JD, Kinze, vs CaseIH debate I can tell you this. I worked for Precision Plantings (now) parent company, they make millions and millions of dollars making the JD and Kinze planters plant perfect. By a new small JD and then spend 65,000 more to bring it up to precision standards. Thing was they have almost nothing for CaseIH. If you cannot add value and improve a system then you don't have a market there. No CaseIH parts from precision.
The Gen5 research planters for this giant company were all being made from CaseIH planters to the tune of $250,000 per row. No modifications were being made to the row units, just adding automation for planting research plots automatically. They were giving up on the heavily modified other brands including the dedicated research planter companies. The CaseIH systems were better "right out of the box"
