Was wondering if anyone has a backhoe attachment on their John Deere sub compact tractor? I was thinking about getting a used tractor with a backhoe attachment to do things around the house. One thing I would like to use it for would be to dig out our retaining wall. I would imagine it would be capable of doing so? The area is about 4' tall and we would like to extend it out about six more feet.
Backhoe use on a sub compact?

I say if you can buy one for the right money, they will do the job. A freind of mine used to dig graves with a D-200 Wheel Horse that had the Back Hoe attachment on it and loader. He said it did a great job.
Thanks for the responses. I haven't decided yet which route we are going to go. I could just rent a backhoe for a week, but then I would much rather have something to always have. I am sure a compact tractor with a backhoe and loader would come in handy numerous times throughout the year.
