Thanks to all for posting your thoughts and opinions. I have been a quiet lurker for a short time while trying to figure out what to purchase.
After a short debate between the L2800 and L3400 (HST), I ordered a new L3200 HST with LA524 FEL (quick attach & pallet forks) and BH77 backhoe. The dealer offered the same price for this set-up as the L2800. The only problem is I have to wait until next month (possibly early December) for delivery.
It looks likes they eeked out a few more horsepower out of the L2800 engine to make the L3200. The displacement, bore, and stroke are the same - just more HP. The FEL lifts a little more, a little higher and the backhoe goes a couple inches deeper with a little more force. Otherwise the specs are pretty much the same as the LA463 and BH76.
The plan is to build a small house this spring/summer on our 4 acres. There will be planty use for it before, during and after the house.
