There are a few TBNers that use it. But for the most part, simply to much $$$$ for the majority.

Looks like a nice system, but that's way too much money for me. :)

What's nice is that you could theoretically adapt any size implement to any tractor if you made the tractor plate small enough for your minimum size implement. No cutting, welding, or anything. Just make the mounts bigger outside the triangle on the implement side. QH or not wouldn't matter either.

I sure wanted (want) one, but just too much $. I'd have a hitch and no implements...
Got a $100 QH from Harbor Freight and like it plenty.

Yoder, that looks like a very well-designed system. And I do like the weight it adds to the rear end. But unless I'm missing something, it would mean spending $362 (Cat 1) and $562 (Cat 2) plus shipping per implement just for the adapter plates. Probably why it hasn't caught on more than it has. Do you use it for all six of the implements you've listed?

Also, is it really as easy to align each time as the video shows? I know with my HF "Speedco style" quick hitches, the implements need to be set down fairly level and angled correctly (forward/backward) in order to back right up, hook up and go. Now that I have hydraulic top 'n tilt, that's less of an issue. But still, the marketing videos usually show things in the rosiest light.

I used the Delta system for several years. I had the female units for several attachments. I ended up selling all of my Delta units (two male units and several female units) and went to Pat's quick-connect system. The reasons were (a) the female units are pretty heavy presented a challenge for some family members when they had to change a female unit from one attachment to another and (b) the female units did not fit all of our attachments. But, the Delta system is really good and works great. Then again, so is and so does Pat's system.
