    Will I be satisfied with skid steer trencher

    I have a 2007 Mustang MTL 25, same as Tak 150 or Gehl CTL 80. Will I be satisfied with a 40" - 48" trencher. I have several water and electric lines to run on my own place, and it would be used to put up silt fence. I hate to rent a piece of junk that I have to work on to make it work.

    Reliability and parts for a Fiat Allis FD175
