[QUOTE="4x4dually, post: 1345438, member: 4100"] They make 10' and 15' options for a grand and a grand and a half! LOL I will mainly use it for ditches and eradicating the spotty Johnson grass in my pastures. There are just clumps here and there. I would imagine a day of driving around I'll have it whopped. By the third year, it should be gone for the most part and by using Glyphosate, not that over priced Out-Rider crap that costs $370 for like 20 oz. I've read pros and cons on the sponge vs rope vs roller. The only thing that bothers me is like they say, the wiper "is an art, not a science." You have to sense when the wiper is getting dry and turn the pump on just to the point of dripping then turn it off. There is really no way to control the wick suturization when driving around in weeds that vary in density and height. I think I'll enjoy getting rid of the sericea lespedeza with it as well. You can also retro-fit other sprayers with the sponges up to like 70ft wide....but it will cost more than my first house did. I'll keep my old converted cotton sprayer for broad-leaf junk. Fan tips on a fixed boom in the middle, and a couple fans and a boomless on the end of the short booms. I can cover about 45' wide. Not a fancy rig, but a free rig.
