Made it through another year with my worn MacDon 7000. Pretty much have to update before next hay season. No big affinity for any particular brand... MacDon has been good for me, but no dealer anywhere near any more. New Holland would probably be my first choice.
THere area several C-IH discbines (NH trademark... I know...) fairly close on craigslist, an 8309 and a pair of 8312's. Whats the good, bad, and ugly on them? Guessing they're Hesstons with CIH red paint and stickers. The rubber on steel rolls OK? My Grandpa had a couple Hesstons, I was never impressed with their idea of conditioning (non-meshing rubber/steel). These CIH rolls mesh.
Just starting to look.
