Looking at a GEHL 2580 round baler. Wondering if anyone on here uses one (or a 2880, 2680, 1475 etc.) 14,000 bales. Has net wrap and mega wide pickup. Looks to be in really good shape for the age and bale count. It's open throat with Variable density and silage special. Main questions are about parts support and how many bales they're good for. For 14,000 bales, it looks to be in really good shape. Only welding on it is on the net wrap cover. The rest of the machine looks really good. Is it's life mostly over at 14,000 bales, or are they good to 50000 bales like a Deere can be with proper maintenance? Also wondering about parts. From what I understand, some parts are obsolete(monitor, controller, etc.), but are most of the parts available? I'm not too worried about bearings, sprockets, rolls and belts, which covers about everything. Also wondering about how the net wrap system works on these(trouble free and reliable)?, and how well they'll bale straw out of an IH combine. I would really like a Deere 467, but that's not in the budget right now. I can get this for the right money(5000 or less), And I haven't heard too much bad about a GEHL baler that isn't closed throat.
