What are the most used attachments you have? What attachments do you never use?

Of course my front end loader and with it pallet forks, and grapple with which I am always using one of them. One of them is always on the tractor and I don't know how i could do without all of them.

I use all of my attachments a fair amount. A good set of pallet forks is very versatile for a relatively small investment.

Least used is a set of discs. Most used this year is a toss up between the gannon and the landscape rake.
I have a bobcat and a forklift so that effects my choices.

I had a disc and sold it. I also have a tiller. The tiller does everything better and takes a fraction of the room to store.

The Towner disk I have is big and heavy with actuating steel wheels.

FEL, pallet forks, rotary cutter, and 6 way rear blade. I also have an all purpose plow that is great but I only use it once or twice a year for garden prep. All that I ever have need for. I used to own a lot of seldom used implements for another smaller tractor and sold them with the tractor. When I bought my new tractor I only bought the implements that I used frequently. Your mileage may vary for your uses.

Right now grapple and powered pallet forks

For next couple of years my big usage will the bale spear, backhoe and loader. Least used right now is brush mower, but invaluable when needed.

It will depend on where you live and what you need to do, but for me, in order of the time used: FEL, Box blade, pallet forks, grading blade, and carry-all (to which I have built a box/uber +). And whichever one you really need at the time for the task is the most important one you have.

Others are not used much - this is why:
Rotary Mower- bought it with the tractor - just don't need it much so will sell it.
Post hole digger - the least useful purchase for me because the hard dirt and DG and rocks - kind of make it worthless - the effort to hook it up and line it up (often on challenging terrain), and storage/handling issues, just does not make it worth it for me - will sell it.
Middle buster - used at times but I really have not been able to get it deep enough to really make a difference for me.

And though it is not an implement - a tooth bar is very useful at times.
