As cool as the Broncho is show us some pictures of your F250! And the interior!
It’s nothing flash inside. The 6.7 V8 is incredible though.

The lightning looks very smart. I hate to think when folks will actually get hold of one though. If you order a new Bronco today it’s an 18month weighting list. Dealers that have them in stock are charging up to $20k over MSRP as a dealer mark up.

That’s the problem the figures quotes seem super reasonable to,40000 usd which is about 29.500 pounds, but by the time it does get here I bet it’s well up on what you guys can get them for

It's a bit lighter and more manouverable for slopes and damp ground ... we're in North West Wales! I dont need a big output as it's just for own ground (no contracting), just saves all-nighters wrapping bales after a day baling now that I'm more or less by myself (Dad getting older and brother got married!). On the demo it seemed to miss-feed the film binding when the crop was too dry so I can switch to net if needed, and yes, if I'm doing hay I can leave them unwrapped
I've been thinking about one of these for a while now. It will be interesting to see how you get on with it. My thoughts are like you , on slopes it's a lot less weight than a fusion with two bales on board.
Although you have to wrap as a separate operation with the bio , my thinking would be that as your not pumping oil to the wrapper while baling , combined with pulling less weight could result that on slopes it's no slower than a fusion on a smaller 4cyl tractor like my 6125r as you could make the bale so much quicker to make up for the wrapping time . Especially as you could be wrapping as you drive to somewhere safe to unload the bale, which would be down time on a fusion anyway.
