We traded a Chinese Mini Excavator for a Ditch Witch backhoe, is this a good deal for us or the other person?
We had 2 mini excavator for sale and were contacted about trading one of them for a Ditch Witch trencher machine with a backhoe. The Ditch Witch was only about a 15 minute drive away, so we loaded up the mini excavator and brought it with to look at the backhoe.
It was a crazy cold rainy night in January, but we both agreed that we'd like to go through with the trade so we made the deal.
Now we had to load the Ditch Witch to bring it home! Online information on the Ditch Witch was a little vague, but what we could find for weight was saying up to 11,000 pounds! We were hoping it didn't weigh that much because we were going to load it on a 14k trailer to be pulled by an F150. Some other reports showed the chassis might weigh about 4800 pounds and the backhoe another 3000 pounds. Long story short, we got it loaded and got it home.
Here we pick up in the video showing the need to get it off the trailer and start looking it over. Was this deal worth it? Are there any significant problems with the Ditch Witch? Then to add a twist, at the end of the video you'll see how we got the original mini excavator back.
