Sub Compact Tractor Backhoe Worth the price? Max 26 XLT Backhoe and Heavy Hitch Toothbar in action!

This is a real backyard project video, not a spec walkaround: the owner uses his Mahindra Max 26XLT with a Heavy Hitch toothbar and backhoe to move fill dirt and rip out old fence-post roots and a stubborn taproot. He directly addresses whether the backhoe's extra cost is worth it, shows the tractor's front tire lifting under load, and flags frame-stress risks. Best for owners weighing the backhoe upgrade or toothbar use.
