..what are they? What are the attachments you feel you can't live without?

Or after you finally bought it, wished you had done it years ago?

I don't know about attachments but just a tractor in general was the best thing I ever bought. It sure saves on a lot of back breaking work! I am pretty fond of all my attachments, BB, BH, tiller and finish mower. I have probably used the tiller and the BH the most. When I bought the BH, I was worried that I would not have enough uses for it but that has not been the case. I do wish it was a little easier to get on.

Why did you go with the finish mower and not a belly mower galaxie?

My quick attach loader is by far the best attachment for me.

Like it was said earlier, a tractor its self is awesome. But as for the implement 'must have' list....

Loader would be the first must have, after not having one for to long until the 790 came along with a loader. Knew I could use one, but found more uses than originally thought of after owning one.

Second, its the box blade. With a box blade you can rough up a spot darn near good enough for a garden, fix a driveway or build one, level land, slope and shape land, remove brush, roots, trees, plow snow or just used as ballast. Its really hard to beat the utility of the box blade. Its the item I wish I had bought years ago...

The tiller is the other implement that seems to hang of the back of the tractor a good while also.

Rear blade, It is a main stay item from somewhere in late November till around the first of March.

Took me a minute to think why you needed a box blade and the rear blade...then I saw where you live. :laughing:

Never used a box blade, but many people on here seem to like it ...sort of a jack-of-all-trades attachment.

Do you have other attachments for the front, or is it just nice to be able to take the loader off?

The loader is my only front mounted attachment. I can put it on or take it off in less than five minutes with no tools. I use it year 'round. For snow removal in the winter. Horse manure, driveway repair, moving and lifting heavy stuff, etc. It is my biggest work saver and most used attachment second to my rear finishing mower. My post hole digger would be a distant third to most used for me.
