start2finish is an unknown quantity at this point
Well I have to finish my decision this weekend, I promised the salesman an answer Monday. We have shopped around and have it priced.

11900 lb rubber track excavator
20.5 ft reach
111120 bucket breakout
angle backfill blade

I am 90% on this purchase and probably will go ahead next week and take delivery
I am sure of a few things if we buy it, hydraulic thumb is a must
and we are buying 2 buckets, and quick coupler is free with 2 bucket purchase

considering a 12 inch trenching bucket for drain lines and stumping

not sure on 24 inch or 30 inch trenching bucket for burying tanks, digging retaining wall footers(extra 6 inches isn't going to kill me on stone cost), as well as general digging,

what are some thoughts on bucket size,
