I did a culvert replacement with mine yesterday. Did all the work from one lane of the road. I was pleased with how much better it worked out than using my Bobcat would have been. It is very convenient to be able to pull the boom back in tight for swinging in close quarters. Travel speed is also awesome. It also has some other nice features that my 15 year old Bobcat doesn't have (but other newer machines probably do): auto idle down when you lift the safety lever, idle down/up button on left joystick. Rubber tracks are nice for street work, we'll see how I like them for other things. I really need to get a tilting ditching bucket for it.
