Lets Just say that the Hesston FIAT is now part of the Fiat owned CNH mess. I was down to my friends CNH dealership about a year ago and he was out back unloading a couple of CXs?? (Can't keep track of models anymore) and he takes me to the rear of one and asked me what I thought. It sure looked like a 8or980 Hesston (FIAT) under the glass and plastic of the cab. When we were CASE dealers we were also HESSTON dealers. Sold the Hesston tractors. All our customers were happy with them and no complaints. The 16speed powershift trans in the 160-90 and 180-90 powered by the 494cu.in. FIAT engine loafing along at 2200RPM, took a back seat to "Knowone" The smaller tractors were very nimple and comfortable to operate. The 880 with it's 5 cylinder engine was a real standout in my opinion. Lots of torque and vary stingey with a gal of fuel. We did very well with the Hesston 6450 SP Mower Conditioners. and the hydro-swings. The choppers were excellent, including the FIELD QUEEN SP. The Round balers were also very well accepted, although I think that form of harvesting hay is extreamly wastefull. Hedgrows lined with them around here. As for your original question: Hesston tractors, Name gone, FIAT very much in the World Tractor business!

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
