chopping corn silage

[pyroman6000]

Doin it old school! Good to see. I've spent many an hour in the seat of a 2440. Self propelled is great - IF- you chop a lot of silage. Otherwise it's just an extremely expensive machine that takes up space in your shed most of the year. A tow behind means you can use that same tractor for many other jobs. Self propelled implements just cost way too much for the small to mid sized farmer, and only do 1 job.

Can you post a video of filling a wagon from beginning to end and then putting it in the silo?? That would be awesome!
