Curiosity: What would be the largest and most powerful backhoe ever built?
Sorry for the bizarre question, which brand and model would be the largest and most powerful backhoe ever built? I realize they're no longer used, replaced by mini excavators and skid steers that are faster, more powerful, versatile, and compact. But just to satisfy my curiosity, what would be the largest and most powerful backhoe ever built? JCB, Volvo, Caterpillar, Komatsu... Thanks, I await clarification.
biggest and most powerful backhoe loader is generally considered to be the JCB 5CX, especially in heavy-duty applications like waste management, known for its massive engine power (around 109 HP), deep dig depth (over 20 ft), and high breakout force, making it a top-tier versatile machine for tough jobs. While other brands like John Deere (710L with 148 HP) also offer powerful models, JCB's 5CX series consistently stands out for its overall strength, deep reach, and market leadership in the backhoe loader category. ?'
