It's about time!
Congratulations.
And pics or it is only an internet rumor.

We all need to constantly research tools and stuff we want so when the other party gives the go ahead we are ready to GET IT!
It took the OP from Dec 26 until now, almost 4 months, to decide.
Paralysis of analysis. :)
I suffer from it also.

... Guess what machine gets the most hours on it per year? Excavator by far, you find uses that you never dreamed of an it makes life so much easier.

I had a TLB for almost 20 years.

Then I added a cabbed tractor. Then a mini-excavator and sold the TLB.

The tractor is twice as old as the mini-excavator. Yet, the mini-excavator has twice the hours! I would of never guessed!

I'm not surprised if you have to travel with a load the mini-x takes 10x longer.

I am on a fixed income, I am also married. .

I am also not a fan of “new” — I miss setting points with a matchbook. SAE sockets…

There are a few pre price increase units still to be had. Congrats on your new EX. They are game changers for sure.
