- Getting old. Sold the ranch. Sold the tractors. Moved back to the city.
I used to have an older ford baler that not only was small and light to pull with a tractor but also produced a slightly smaller bale that was great for younger help.
Right. My neighbor has one of those little Ford balers for sale now. The pickup looks considerably narrower than the one on my Massey Ferguson 124 baler (two twine, small squares) which is 56" wide with 48" gathering width. My 124 weighs 3060 lb and I pull it with a Mahindra 5525 (54 hp engine, 45 hp pto). That Ford baler looks smaller, maybe 2500 lb.
