Hydro thumb would be my vote.
Any thumb is better than none.
With a fixed thumb.......things need to be in perfect spots to "pic" them.
As in you need to move a few inchs forward or reverse to get to the grab spot.
This is easier done in a mini ex than a tractor.
Learning curve for sure....
Then realize you can only move (object) x degrees left or right....Unless the plan is to carry the object.
Grapple for the similar money is likely a better buy.
Not sure what projects your going after.
Hydro thumb on my mini ex was 1800$ 15 yrs ago nearly......No clue on todays cost for your machine.
