Hey guys. I should start this off with I am not affiliated with or work for JCB lol. But in the most recent years JCB's have become a lot more popular in my area with machines other then backhoes. I used to have a 01 804 Mini Excavator and an 03 215S Backhoe. Liked the 804, but loved the 215S. What a bear, tons of power, sipped fuel, smooth etc. Only downside was the bad front visibility to the bucket. I recently ran a 2011-2012 3CX-14 backhoe. The backhoe end was terrible, but the loader end was nice. The backhoes have always been popular, but the new Skid Steers, Excavators, Loaders etc look pretty nice and I have been hearing a lot more about them recently. What do you guys think of them, and do you have any experience with them?
