See that's just it. Yeah I might need a post hole digger once or twice, but I could rent one.
I could use the TLB for heavy lifting, digging much faster and deeper, moving around whatever needs to be moved, grading, etc. I see 580E and the like for cheap money all the time. Doesn't have to be pretty, just work.
While you can use it for grading, not really practical, much much better and faster to use some sort of rear blade. You don't normally see professionals grading with a back hoe.
I suppose you can get the back hoe and if it doesn't work out for you, you could sell it and get something else.
