I'm getting ready to purchase a 2650 with a FEL and MMM. For a bucket I'm leaning towards getting a 54" rather than a 60", but I wanted to break down my reasoning and see what the enlightened folks here thought!
My property is 22ac and includes 5ac cleared, 2ac overgrown field, and the rest is heavily wooded. And all with a large creek running through...large as in 60ft wide with plenty of large rocks.
My thinking is between the heavy woods and heavy rocks (some of which I have plans to rearrange) a slightly smaller bucket will be easier to maneuver. That all said, what's the internet opinion on smaller vs larger loader buckets? Am I going to kick myself later over the extra 6" (Corrected my math here)?
