Thoughts on Georipper trencher? Feedback if you own one?

First, money is no issue at my company at the moment. I don’t have to budget shop. And, we have a big trencher, this would be in addition to our big one.

The biggest electric is $3200 and goes 20 inches max depth. $3000 for the 16 inch.

Biggest gas is $2600 and goes 27 inches depth. $2500 for the 20 inch. $2000 16inch.

I was considering the 27 inch gas. Cheaper and more torque than the electric. I only need 12 inch depth most of the time, but the ability to go 20 or 27 seems nice. Part of me thinks I might be happier with the 20 inch so it’s a little smaller to work with.
