There's good reason. Dollar for dollar and feature
for feature, you just can't buy a better forage box.
Used! Abused! Gehl boxes just ask for more. That's
why two of every five self-unloading forage boxes in the
field today are Gehls.
The Gehl unloads a ton-a-minute from the front . . .
even faster from the rear. Handles everything from hay
in the spring to ear corn in the fall. What's more, your
Gehl box can be made the size you need. You can have
2-, 4-, or 6-foot sides in the standard length of 16 feet
— or shorter or longer. Up-front controls let you boss
the job from the tractor
