Interesting. I may have to look into this.
Did you buy a trailer too?
You know it all adds up.
Then the differing buckets, and devices they sell.
I like the auger too.
Jeesh the price keeps going up.

I found it's gotten a lot easier to do that work since I got a small
excavator. 8-)

Funny you should say that as that is what I got. And they have 4 year
zero % interest. I can pretty much make the monthly payments just
doing odd job for my neighbors. Live in an area with a lot of rocks,
stumps and trees. 5 acre minimum. Not trying to be in business so it
works well for all.

I actually picked up a 14' 14K LB dump trailer with ramps. Now I load
it up haul all the old wood to the recycler, costs $18-24.00 to dump
it and I'm home in an hour. I can take old rotten stuff and to burn
6-8 yards of that stuff is a week end job. 2 years ago the trailer
was only $6100 plus taxes ect. I'm on social security disablility
which is how I justified, but with trades and working for a tree guy
hauling chips like I say its pretty much free. Kubota really values
there parts. I have a 12" and 24" bucket. Unless I'm digging I
mostly use the 12" especially for placing rocks. I picked up B3200 as
well with a loader and backhoe with a thumb. I bought that first but
it couldn't do the heavier work. But still like having the loader,
and the rock rake and back blade come in handy, If I get a chance
I'll try to post some pictures. Did get a sweet deal on the
excavator, the dealer brought it in on a promotion and had to pay for
it in two days so I got it pretty much at cost plus B&O taxes.
