We still have our 16FT 3point JD rotary hoe sitting in my machine shed (I think its a 9000 series), We bought it in the early 90's for our beans and some corn, I think we have used it twice in its life, and we bought it brand new, they are not used alot, The paint on ours still looks like new and still has the green paint on the spokes,
We have been trying to sell ours for about 3years now, not a single person has been interested, I m thinking of sending it to scrap metal.
