Nicely worded. Hope you get many useful hours out of your investment.

You are correct (from your point of view)-a one man show cannot run two machines-but could you do more jobs (in a shorter time) with two machines (and Operators) instead of one? I am referring to a Landscaping Contractor trying to make a living doing this (more than half my business is Contractors).
xxxsandman said:Clearly Builder, you are happy with your full size Case. I've read you brag about it in many threads, many times. It sounds like a nice machine and MORE important it sounds like the RIGHT machine for YOU.
But not everyone is YOU and has YOUR needs. My point is just that, just because a full size Case backhoe is best for Builder doesn't mean it's best for you. Just because I feel a L48 is best for me, doesn't mean it's best for you.
They all have their advantages. That nice Air conditioned cab on Builders machine would be really nice, but I bet the trees I was working in this last weekend would have made it an open cab without glass REAL quick. It was tight, even on my smaller L48 open cab.
Builder, nothing personal, your machine looks awesome, I wish I had it and my L48, but can't afford both, barely can afford just one.
