Looking at a 110TLB, 5500 hours, 4-1 bucket and thumb, low 20's.
Anyone else have experience with a high hour machine?
Mine has been a good worker for what I do with it which is 菟roperty clean up around the farm and some rentals properties in town. I can trailer it easily with a 3/4 ton truck. The thumb is extremely handy. I also have a JD auger which I use on the backhoe to set corner posts. That has been great.
Anything can be broke if you aren稚 careful. The 110 is not a 吐ull sized hoe but it can be very useful if you use it within its limitations. Like anything else.
No one machine will do everything.
I am looking at a CTL with a brush cutter for sometime in 2021. I may want to expand beyond just what I do for myself. The dealer痴 eyes really lit up when I told him I had the 110 although I never mentioned trading it and even told him I wasn稚 planning to do that. He sure wanted to look at it and see what 塗e could do?
I wouldn稚 look too favorably on a 110 with 5500 hours for $20k. Sounds like way too much $ for that many hours.
I wouldn稚 tell anyone to rule out a clean, low hour 110 but that shouldn稚 be the only thing you consider either.
CAT has their rental system down pat. If you have some work you are ready to do might try renting a couple different things and then buying. Kubota also has perfected a pretty good rental system. JD has some catching up to do in getting their system down pat. But they will catch up soon.

Good luck with what you decide to do,
