I've had the opportunity to run 2 of these tractors at a trade school. A 1998 and a 1999. Compared to excavators, front end loaders, and bulldozers, the backhoes are everyones least favorite machine. But I absolutely love these tractors. Easy to control very comfortable. I was just on the 99 today and had no problem getting the job done. I hope to own one someday

Your brother seems very polite and helping, I’m sure you and him have good memories!
Thankyou and yes we do lol
We have that same backhoe one of the best backhoes we've ever had
Seems like a real good machine, Ford makes some damn good equipment, worst thing they ever did was quit making farm equipment and industrial equipment
Those ford 555 backhoes are amazing, we’ve had one for years never really gave us problems
Yessur they are good machines
I think this video was well put together
Thanks I appreciate it man
Uuumm, give it a shot of ether...
Like watching an episode of Keystone Cops.
Is that truck an 80s f250 7.3l diesel
Yessur that was an 86 f250 with a 6.9 idi with a turbo kit
Wait until you have to replace the hydraulic hoses on that machine. It is pure hell.
How so?
