I am a long time reader of this forum, and really appreicate its candor. I am finally about to buy a BX23, and have found a really good deal with the local dealer, in Winnfield LA, and with 36m 0%, don't think I can really go wrong. What I would like to know is how strong the BH600 really is? I have viewed it working on Steve Brittain's Web page pulling that trophy stump, but read, that it took a few days. I will not be needing to get any thing that big, if I do. I can rent a small track hoe for that. Just want to play in the yard. My yard is in the city, its 8 city lots, with four lots in grass, with buildings on them, and the two that I have been working on for the last two years with rental equipment, and two swamp, that I would like to clean up enough to make a small pond, and/ or walking trails.
Right now the two lots, I've been working on, have 12 large sweet gum trees,"12 to 20 inch trunks" that I yanked out of the ground with a large track hoe, last year, just laying around, very muddy, and with the BX23, would have to cut up into smaller pieces to handle.
If I can get the logs, and stumps, to the street the City will pick them up, and haul away.
I also would like to have a small vegetable garden, and plant a few Peach trees.
The other options, are keep renting, at $125. a day for a 6000# track hoe, or buying a NH TC24-29-33, with TLB, but that is a lot of Money.
Thanks in advance for all the help, I know this forum will provide.
