Yeah....I havent used that switch since my tri axle-n days......
Might be making a return though.

That's what our hay guy used for mushroom hay. Ten wheeler with grapple loading round bales, seemed to be a pretty efficient set up.

If you want to make a million baling hay,,,,,start with 2 million. 😆
That reminds me of an old episode of a late night show, thinking it was Letterman, where an old farmer won the state lottery.
He was asked what he planned to do with his new found wealth and replied I think I'll just keep farming till I go broke.

Pic from loading from the farmers field last year with my tractor, they were very busy delivering to their larger customers at the time

I think the key is to have related work other than hay, since hay is not a year round job, at least it’s not in colder states.
In my extra time, I do a lot of related tasks; custom farming, field mowing, large area mowing, snow plowing, barn building, property maintenance.
Unless you marry a rich woman and she buys you all your equipment ;) you need to do other work.
