Just wondered if anyone on here has had any experience with the 7tb backhoe. When I made the deal the price he gave me was including the 7tb, but now that I have read the specs on both I'm wondering if I need to rethink my purchase and go with the larger backhoe (8tb). Bucket dig force on the 7tb is 2827 pounds, diperstick is 2022 pounds. The 8tb has bucket force at 4156 pounds, dipperstick at 2183 pounds. Is this going to make a huge difference other than the extra 12 inches digging depth? They both weigh within 100 pounds of each other. Any input is appreciated.
