Hi,
Just wondering if anybody out there has an opinion on the
Terramite T5C backhoe. It would seem to be ideal for doing
the light earthmoving jobs that I have in mind (digging the
occasional footing, drainage ditch, pipe burial, etc) but I
can’t help but wonder if it’s got enough grunt-power to do
even those small jobs, particularly in the hard black clay
we have here. Have any of you had experience with this piece
of equipment?—Joe
