Woods BH 6000 bachoe with thumb

[lutt]

I know the backhoe topic gets the living daylights beat out of it, I am probly gonna buy one in this model, sub frame and thumb are 7750 installed at my local woods dealer, this will be going on my 4200 Deere hydro, I already have the power beyond. So no need for pto . I have a lot of footage if water lines to dig for irrigating my paddocks,water tanks in paddocks, sewer field lines that need work, a few stumps, rental property that always needs something and some terracing to do. Just wondering who owns this paticular model, if they like it or not, and and other comments. This don't need to get into a 3 point versus a frame mount. I know this rig won't be what I'm used to running in a full size case, but will for my needs better I believe. I've been trying to weigh the good and bad, this is half the money for some decent used full sized hoes. LUTT

7750 seems a bit high for that small of a hoe. I have a bh70x and I got mine for 6100 back in 07. That was with two buckets and the sub frame kit. As far as performance, i couldn't ask for much more out of mine, although its a tad larger than yours. I would recommend the woods hoe but I wouldn't want to go any smaller than the bh70x. That's just my opinion.
