A quick hitch is one of the best attachments I own. I just traded my JD IMatch for the Land Pride Quick Hitch to get a little more flexibility, though. The Land Pride allows you to quickly adjust the top link hook when necessary for attachments which are not IMatch compatible, which reduces the chance of having to modify the attachment to fit. To me, the difference in cost between the JD and Land Pride was worth it to avoid the cost of modifying my non-quick hitch compatible attachments. The JD IMatch is designed for JD/Frontier quick hitch attachments, although some others may fit.
Sometimes my time is at a premium, and being able to quickly change out attachments is great. But the convience at anytime is worth even more. Yeah, I know-a quick hitch is not a necessity, but boy, is it ever handy.....
My dealer is great to work with, which makes this even better. Great shop, too.
