I ran across an old Hesston tractor today that has been tucked away in a barn for about 14 years. The owner said when it was parked there was nothing wrong with (and I would have no reason not to believe this man) and the only reason he parked it was the John Deere dealer offered him very little in on a trade in for it. It hasn't been started, moved, nothing for 14 years and it is a very low hour tractor. There is a lot of talk about low hour, one owner, well kept tractors being of good value now days and I was wondering if that would be true for Hesston's? It is a 1580 with a cab and MFWD and in pretty descent condition. I see very few Hesston's around any more but I know some have to be out there being used.
What are the thoughts on Hesston's? Would this be a good find or something to stay away from?
