Volvo EC650
Pros
- Large bucket capacity (~3.2–4.4 m³) suitable for heavy earthmoving and quarry work.
- Robust undercarriage and planetary final drives typical of large Volvo excavators of the era.
- Older EC650 machines often have durable components and parts that can be sourced in secondary markets.
BOBCAT E27
Pros
- Good power for class: 24.8 HP Kubota engine gives solid performance for a 2‑3 t excavator.
- Higher dump height (~3.3 m): Useful for loading trucks or reaching over obstacles.
- Strong digging force: Buckets have higher digging force (~26.5 kN), good for tough soil
