Overview
A hobby homesteader brings his BX23S to a neighbor's property so the neighbor, an M6060 owner, can try the subcompact before deciding whether to buy one. The core test is backhoe work on a large pine stump, with candid on-camera feedback after seat time: what surprised him, where the machine hit its limits, and how it compares to heavier equipment. Loader and mower testing is deferred to future videos. Best for anyone weighing whether a BX-sized backhoe is worth the added cost.
