Mini Excavator or Chainsaw?
#4
I have used a full sized backhoe/front end loader (Case 580) and it is not strong enough to tear out everything so I think you will be disappointed with a mini-anything. Anything with wheels will get stuck at some point too. This is not to say that the mini excavator would be useless. I would love to have had one to rip out small stuff and help drag the cut trees out of the forest. I am picturing something with treads rather than wheels.

I have had some success applying pure or 50% solution round-up to the cut stumps to keep them from re-sprouting. Apply immediately after cutting.
