shooter-

I pull a 16R30 Flex fold 7200 with a 2wd 7800. I do not have any fertilizer and I run 14 front weights. Horsepower is not a problem unless you are in the mud, which was an issue this year. It lifts a little slow on the ends, the hydraulics are sufficiant but it would be nice to have more hydraulic capacity. It the planter is full of seed transporting is a bit of a challenge the planter has a lot of weight on the hitch when transporting. I would not want to have fertilizer on it, I think that would put you over the limit. All in all it works out OK and is better than having to go buy a new MFWD. Let me know if you have any more specific questions.
