Subject: Power question

The fellow wants to know if his 4955 will pull a 24 row, not when did Deere build them.

I think a 200 hp, 4 wheel drive 4955 should handle it A-OK.
I pulled a 12 by 30 with 94 hp for a year, then 105 hp for 24 years. Never felt I needed more power.
Got stuck twice in 25 years.

When I put the 150 hp 4630 on the 12 row in 2007, I felt I was packing the ground by havin too much tractor on the planter.
