I get what everyone is saying about a dedicated backhoe being a better machine for frequent/heavy jobs, but if a good deal came along, especially for the homeowner or someone with a small property, would you honestly say no to a backhoe on a smaller tractor? For what I'd use it for, I'd love to have one on the back of a tractor instead of a separate piece of machinery I'd have to maintain (ok, so that's not true of me, the more machines the better, but you get my point ).

Isn't that how they all work, Sam? I didn't know they had the option to buy them!
