Hodge's Stabilizers for sure. Just got mine in about a week ago, and really wish I had them from the start. Check out how they work here:

I also just got to try out my snowblower, and after last winter this thing is going to be a life saver.

For gardens, having a tiller is awesome. Having the FEL for general work is great. The MMM and Bagger are also useful for lawn care.

I would agree - after the fact that i wish I had such a capable tractor sooner - the most versatile, used and appreciated attachment is the land pride grapple. That is what is usually on the tractor rather than he bucket.

Front end loader, power steering and 4WD (front wheel assist) I realize the last two are not attachments but don't think I would buy a tractor without them.

Hydro trans and live PTO! Ran a JD750 with neither for 28 years, never knew what I was missing.

Can't say as to attachments, everything I have is perfect for what it does. Am thinking about a grapple, but I'll likely go with the Brush Crusher as it doesn't require a lot of expensive extra hydraulics and I'll only use it for dealing with firewood anyway.

Well, maybe moving the odd rock, but my land is all cleared so brush isn't an issue.

The set of Artillian Pallet Forks that I just received.

Next on the list - Grapple!

This springs land clearing is going to be a lot easier than the last two years!

I just saw the coolest attachment - but I am sure it's way too expensive for the average tractor user - a remote control box blade that works off a laser level.

A grade was set, the laser lever sent out it's signal and all the tractor driver needed to do was drive the tractor back and forth, was really cool.

I would love to have one !

I'm still acquiring implements, so limited in input, but I can say my Quick Hitch is a huge work-saver. I disconnected my shredder and attached disc harrow this past week in approximately 2 minutes, start to finish.

Granted, I'm still new at this, but in the past that would have required much much longer, and a lot of effort to get the 3 pts aligned. With QH, the longest part of the switch was having to dismount the tractor to disconnect the PTO shaft. All else was done without leaving my seat.

My absolute favorite is the grapple. That's on 99.9% of the time. I pick up round bales of hay with it, move the feed drums, pick up and move logs, brush, rocks, etc. Best part is when I start a burn pile I can easily manage the size of the fire by adding a load or two at a time. Helps keep things under control. Next up is the back hoe. Not used quite as often, but has saved my back numerous times in the 9 months I've owned the tractor. My next "implement" is the wooden chainsaw holder that goes on the left FEL frame.
