Pulling the trigger today

[7000]

Okay tractor fans,

Today I'm closing on a new XR4046H LS tractor after a month of detailed research and comparing all possible brands. I have only on more decision. Which backhoe to take the LB2102 or the LB1102? Will be using it only for trenching and pickup on tree/brush refuse. The larger LB2102 has a foot longer reach and is the recommended attachment. But the cheaper LB1102 will also do the job. I also need to ask you guys if a thumb is advantageous or desirable to add and whether the mechanical one is sufficient or is it necessary to add the pneumatic one.

I will post on the results of my experience of this new Tier 4 machine later.

Thanks for any input you provide.

New Buyer 7000

Congratulations on new tractor, I have never heard any body complain about to big a back hole!! I have a 880 case excavator and wish it was bigger, when you buy something for a couple of jobs know in a few years who knows.
