Around here we call them blue tombstones and many left customers with memories of lawsuits against a bankrupt company. Yeah they were nice when new back in their day we had a push button feed room worked great till something broke down. Lots of maintenance = lots of cost. The loaders were built tough but get worn out with silage acid eating on them constantly so when they got older there was always something to fix to keep them going.
