I'm on Argent Dawn EU, and about to hit Northrend, there is a huge lack of healers on the server and there is a population problem with too many tanks and dps. I want to level fast and I want to go feral to 80 but with the big open market for healers, should I got resto for 70-80?

I leveled 70-80 specced resto. It's annoying, but doable. You essentially trade off damage for survivability. I don't kill things very fast but I'm in turn very hard to kill.
If you don't mind the loss of personal dps then I'd say give it a shot. You can always respec back if you don't like it.

I leveled 70 to 80 as
resto
. It was super fast and really easy. There was a high demand for healers on my server (Twisting Nether) and I ended up doing a TON of instances. most of my gear was from instances, not questing (same with XP). With the changes in spell power, I quested like I was a boomkin, and found that to be easy also. I did lose out on some survivability against elite mobs (there are a lot of group quests in Dragonblight) but had no issues past that.

I leveled from 61-78ish as Moonkin resto hybrid, almost all balance with a enough resto to easily heal any dungeon
This is kinda my crappy leveling build that i used (though its been a while and its not perfect (by far)) It worked great for both healing and DPSing while soloing.
As you level grab typhoon and treants to speed up soloing at 71-72

I leveled as cat. I killed fast, and was very hard to kill. Id say go as as cat; usually you don't have a choice between feral and resto gear on the same quest. If you do have to choose, take resto; the other gear will do you just fine.

Thanks for the answers, I'm going to level as feral up to 80 and collect healing gear along the way, It should be quick and i'll respec at 80.

You can always level as feral but go as far as intensity in the resto tree. I was able to heal all northrend instances this way. Even HoL at lvl 78. something like this would work
