Work, play, or rest, they look good together, but we need to know the sizes.

ya know you are talking to real men when they are talking four wheel drive to hay with! LOL
I've stacked bales on the wagon when we struggled to keep from sliding off, and we didn't have four wheel drive on anything, I can't imagine what hills you guys are working on! be careful

I am still confident of this;
I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.
Wait for the Lord;

I've come close on two occasions of turning 6060 over and I got the 8010 to hold my vermeer round baler on some of these hills around me and to mow with . it's got the weight and power to tackle our ground just be nice to have 4x4. I've had my 175 with loader spin out pulling square baler up couple hills on few places we have for hay
ground and it's a bad feeling !

Piled wagons for years in upstate NY and we had one particular field that required feathering the clutch to "tighten" the load and my father had the touch to do it. Caused some friction as a teenager, thought sometimes he was doing it to just bust my chops.
Some farmers swore by old milk straps they fastened in specific areas of the wooden wagon floor. We did not as it made it hard for the younger ones to slide those 50-55# bales across the wagon floor when unloading on the barn bridge.
Good memories and you slept well after a good 1500 bale day, especially as I got to stay in the field baling until sundown and I got out of milking.
Eight kids and everyone worked in those days.
Brother now struggles to find young folks to throw hay, even at $150 to unload 5 or 6 kicker wagons . . . . .
