Hello!
I am looking to buy a mini excavator of sort and to give some background info I will be turning up to possibly 13 acres into a campground/RV park. So I will be cutting some roads in putting in culverts, bringing down a lot of trees obviously moving a lot of gravel and grading multiple large rv sites. I have looked at some minis at our local rental place I would love to have something the size of a Kubota KX 80 or possibly the KX 161-3. There seams to be quite a big difference between the 80 and 161 8,000lbs different to say the least. I am wondering what other brands are similar to these two pieces of equipment in size and capabilities our rental place only has kubotas and also wondering if i could pull the kx-80 with my dodge ram 3500? Any recomindations or info would be great!
