[QUOTE="flaboy-, post: 282121, member: 3688"] I may have to get the Ironpeddler to ship me one down here. I have sent out inquiries to 10 dealers here in Fla and got one response. I can't find a Vicon dealer. Google search shows only 4 Vicon dealers in the USA. I had one years ago and loved it. I kind of wanted to get another but with no dealers around I don't know about it. I got a quote for $7500 for a NH616. That is only quote I have gotten. I have looked at the Bushhog, Massey, NH, Kuhn, Krone, Vermeer, New Idea, Hesston, and Haymaxx. I really like the shaft drive units but I guess since I have used belt drives for many year they are ok too. The Massy, Hesston, and Haymaxx all appear to be about the same as my old Fort Italian made POS. Guess I can't complain though it has lasted 8 years with not too much expense of repairs. Maybe $500 over those years. My problem is finding a dealer around here that has any to look at or finding a reasonable price. I will have one by next cutting season though. Edited - Just got a quote for the Kuhn GMD 600 @$7350. Edited - Just got a quote for the Deere 265 @$9350. Edited 10/10 - got quote on Bushhog HM2408 @$7229. [/QUOTE]
