I'm in the market for a new baler.
The old jd 24t just went out of time again somehow and snapped a needle - I'm done with it.
Looking for something a little bigger/faster/more reliable.
Can't justify big bucks at this point.
I was looking more towards new holland equipment - maybe a 311 or even a 565 if I can find one for the right price, but that's a stretch.
But now a Hesston 4500 appeared on craigslist, and we're in the right ball park for what I'd LIKE to spend. I googled it, and read a few positive comments on them.
Anybody here have experience with them? Personally, I've never even seen one before.
Would I be foolish to go out of the New Holland line for an old baler (parts-availability-wise)?
