The backhoe is a nice attachment, I had one on my L2900 and it worked excellently. However, it was tight and I am not even 6'. It's hard to justify the cost unless you can depreciate it for taxes. When I sold the L to buy the MX I didn't get the backhoe attachment. I rent an excavator which is easier to use and digs better than the tractor mounted hoe, particularly if you are digging a trench as you don't have to raise and lower the feet constantly to move the hoe.
