[QUOTE="hayray, post: 616991, member: 3046"] I am on my 2nd in-line, just bought a new Hesston a couple of years back. Because of the stuffer fork center cam mechanism they make a more consistent shaped bale then the other makes, but they actually take a lot more horse power to run. I think if you were stuffing hay fast you would be hard pressed to run very fast with a 65 hp tractor. They pack bales much better and loose alot less leaf because of the low profile pickup, there is less pick-up distance and leaf shatter involved and the hay is dropped in a trough before it is stuffed in the chamber, there really is no comparison between the inline and the Deeres and New Hollands in that matter, but I do think the Deeres and New Hollands with the taller pick-up will eat hay a little faster because if you are gonna break shear bolts you are more likely to break the pick up shear rather then the plunger shear. But I can still tie a knot every 4 seconds if the hay is raked right and feeds good. [/QUOTE]
