Anyone have experience with a John Deere 8130?

Question

Looking at buying a new workhorse on the farm to pull a 12 row high speed planter.  Anyone have any experience.  What are the ratings?  Any Flaws?  Likes and Dislikes?

Answer

You would need to have it chipped to be able to pull high speed.  I have 8430 and has-been good so far. Now has 15k hrs  PowerPoint, and now mostly used for tillage. Used to have it on 16 row, it has the highest capacity pump 60 gallon? Not sure

Answer

We tune the 8130 +75hp if power is a concern for the planter. Any questions call or text **** ************

Answer

We have one and love it. We pull a 16 row 1770nt.
 I dont think ours has the hydraulics to pull the high speed planter but I know at one point they said u could run the alternator on the pto. As far as reliability it's been good after all the pips have been done(lift pump,  fan to hydraulic)Only real trouble is weve changed a few injectors. If you have a fuel problem this tractor will definitely show u it. Run fuel treatment for lubrication year round.
