NH 757C Backhoe

[John_Mc]

I'm thinking of buying a backhoe for my TC33D. I like the NH 757C, since it goes on & off without removing any 3PH parts. Also considering a Woods 7500 (my NH dealer also carries Woods... since I bought my tractor there, they'll give me 20% off list for Woods implements). Both are subframe mounts. Any comments on the relative quality or durability of these units? Ideas on a fair price for new, and/or where I can find a good used one? How much does a backhoe depreciate with a couple of hundred hours of use, if well maintained?

i just purchased a 757C , very little use, with subframe and all brackets for 3400.00. i got it through a big equipment ,Ag dealer. im happy, but recently missed one on craigslist, very nice shape for 1100.00 it was only on there for 3 hrs, and sold. so you can wait, and maybe someday get lucky, or pay more, and at least get a chance to buy one
