I’m in need of a backhoe around the farm. Something that will at least 7’-8’ deep. I don’t need a mini ex.
looking at different options. If I go with skid steer with a backhoe attachment, I need to keep it under $20k. I’m looking at older models but determining if used backhoes are compatible with used skid steers is tricky.
Also considering a tractor type, but would prefer a frame mount backhoe. Like a Kubota.
The bottom of the line option is the towable Harbor Freight trencher.
So for the skid steer/tractor option, what would you recommend that’s below $20k?
