I agree with MCL that they are a very good planter and low maint. costs. Be sure to have it picked up so you can spin and wiggle everything that moves and measure the opener disks. Parts for everything are costly these days. Hope it has been stored inside. The drive tires should turn the planter units with some resistance, but not be hard to turn or there is a bearing or more sticking. Take a flashlight and look at the bottom of the seed tubes for wear and cracks on them. Pull the seed disks off and look for very deep grooves around the outside of where the disk runs. Very deep ruts will show a lot of acres covered.
I would look for a 6000 series if you find one cheap as they have some good updates but we are running 2 8 row 30" 5700s and will for many more years to come. Stay away from it if it has a blower fan for each row.
