My neighbor has a brand new New Holland thats broke down, he is fighting mad not that anyone around here would poke a stick through the fence. Difference is the factory guy is working on his. I would want to see the baler in operation, just remember no matter the type belt or chain baler they all can make a preacher cuss. [/QUOTE]
