Have you heard: I woke up when my head kept hitting the wall? That's how I found Heavy Equipment forums.

I was headed towards that wall again Dealers and auctions and commercial websites were not telling me how to make an informed choice, I wanted badly to spend money and get a digger but common sense said look for professionals or at least some experienced opinions to make my choice. Been watching- reading awhile and hope I can add something too.

Thanks for asking, and even more, thanks for this forum.
I Googled "Hitachi Excavator EX 120" and a few other variations; scanned the numerous listings, found this on the second page (I think). I tend to move past the first few listed especially if they seem commercial. And user forums (fora?) are often the best sources of real information -- and though they can be time consuming, one learns more than hoped for.

G'day All
Found you through Google as well. Was doing some research on loader/backhoe's as I am poised to purchase a used one for my property.
I am on Oz (Australia) & have been in the earth moving industry on & off over the last 20+ years both as mechanic & operator.
Only looked in here briefly so far, but looks like a fantastic resource, congrats to all involved :)
Cheers
