Well I just bought a MX 5000 with front loader. Unit seems to run very well. I've only put 36 hrs. on it so far. Want to buy the backhoe for it next year. Anyone else out there have a MX? would like to here from you if you have one.

I bought my MX5000 aug.2002. I got the 4n1 bucket for it.You can pick up 12 foot logs with it. With 170 hours on only problems i have had are the tran. sight glass in the back leaks put new one in still leaks. Tried every kind of glue. Epoxy has kept it in but still leaks.Also it blew a power steering hose. Still runs good.

I did the 50 hr myself. I think it was around $160.00 just for the oil and filters at the dealer. Thinking about looking for another source for the 200 hr.
oil change. I don't have the backhoe. ....
