[QUOTE="500K_773, post: 370, member: 33"] The 337 is smaller than I would ultimately like to have, but would do the job at hand. For about $14,000 less, the Cat 304CR would dig 1' less and lift less load (ie. septic tanks) but could do most of the work I needed to do. A Cat 420 backhoe loader with an extendable stick (~18' dig depth) is about $75,000. About $20,000 more than the 337, would perform more work due to the bigger size and more power, but may also perform less in soft crowded conditions compared to the 337. Right now, I am trying to size all my equipment to be able to haul around with my 1 ton truck and my trailer. The truck is only LEGAL to pull 12,500# and the trailer weighs 2000#, so leaves 10,500# for the excavator. The 337 is definately more than this weight and the 304CR is about 500# over this weight. The T300 would fit just fine on the trailer though :) [/QUOTE]
