Well, if you are happy with your current BB, that's great. :thumbsup: You would be thrilled to have one of these. That other 500lbs make all the difference in the world.
Land Pride has an HR3584 series that weighs in at 1119lbs. Many others out there too. It's not that the lighter units don't work, just that the heavier ones just work better.
Just my :2cents:
Pretty much my experience. My Land Pride BB2584 worked fairly well and I still have it for when I need both, but the HR3584 works so much better. If I was getting one just for our M8540 or could afford it, I would have gone with the even heavier Woods and used the HR3584 on the L5740 and Woods on the M.
We have three farms with soil from sand to heavy clay. You just have to adjust the approach a bit, but the same equipment works on all locations. The only downside to the heavier equipment is purchase price. Just my :2cents:
