I'm looking over Iron Planet and Richie's to buy a used backhoe. But most of them weigh too much. My trailer can legally carry 15,000 lbs. Is it just me, or is there a big weight gap between most backhoes and the little Kubota 25 series? That little Kub is too small for me.
What good backhoe weighs in around 14k to 15k? I might have to settle for a compact tractor with backhoe on it. Kubota has a brand new 58hp for about $40k, with excellent 0% financing.
Please guys don't turn this into a truck tow masculinity contest, like what happened to this thread https://www.heavyequipmentforums.co...excavator-you-pull-with-a-pickup-truck.42943/ My F-350 drw can safely and legally tow my 21k trailer in Texas.
