I'm about to purchase a B7800 with a loader and hoe. The local dealers are quoting me prices with the 16" bucket. I will be using the hoe mainly for basic homeowner projects with an occasional ditch or stump removal for a friend who does some landscaping. Would I be better off with a smaller bucket (and also maybe save some money)? Thanks.

I just went through this decision process and concluded, based on input from the folks here, that a bucket in the 12-13" range is ideal for general purpose work. This thread may interest you. ....
