I’d love to have a huddig for afew weeks to give it a real good go! Definitely turn some heads in the uk! I’d really want a 4/1 front bucket though, would break me not having one on a backhoe!

Would one even fit down our roads? Look at the size of it!

do it as well as you can,but learn to do it better
could improve the roads at the same time ..... couldn't get any worse than they are

That reminds me of the Devon farmer who bought a more modern combine for the coming harvest and cheerfully said it doesn't fit up the lanes at the moment but it will come the time. His neighbours must have wondered why he'd become so keen on keeping the lane scraped clean with the Merlo

I have always hated JCBs never could get use to the bloody lever positions it made me look a bit of a prat so always said can't drive them and would use whitlocks , masses and for a time a inch green in the 60s and 70s. The last few years I was working I didn't mind the ford/new holland or the FB100 which I preferred.
Now anybody with 180 ticket is getting rare

That is my same position too.@Bob the only ticket I have is a 180, ironically it’s the only machine I don’t own either

My argument is if you can drive a backhoe you don’t need a ticket for anything else

I'll go with that.My argument is if you can drive a backhoe you don’t need a ticket for anything else
The 432 was stood more and more, I can only drive one thing at once so off it went. Plus the enquiries have got less and less. Since it going in April last year I've only had to hire one for 2 days and for the first time ever I hired one with a driver for a day before Christmas and that was for one of my price jobs. There rate was less than what my day rate used to be and bonus is I could be on the ground keeping everything else moving rather than me been sat in the seat and trying to keep on top of what lads were doing
