A rubber tired excavator seems to strike me as being more mobile than an excavator (on large jobsites or even travelling a short distance between jobsites no need for trailer) and more capable at digging than a backhoe, especially if a loader bucket is not needed. Is this true or does it just do the tasks of each machine poorly? Keep in mind the trenching I am doing is on a flat surface and excessive mud is not an issue. It is not in or around a city either. Is a rubber tired excavator worth considering for long runs of 8' trenching? Or would a person be disappointed?
