Not all of them are built cheap (I don't have one, but lots of folks do, and really appreciate them), so there are good ones out there. The dealer is right about compatability- they don't work well with older implements, and the implements need to be the same mount width within reason. But, once you have your implements and all sorted out, you would be good to go.

On a side note, I usually pass over and don't read when people type their posts in text form. I like words spelled out, complete sentences, and proper grammer. I don't know about anybody else, and I don't speak for them; but what I am saying is that I don't usually give attention to posts that are typed like yours. And, I'm not trying to be snippy or difficult. I'm just stating what I prefer, and the method that will more likely get my attention and a possible answer.

I agree.... I simply don't have time to decode such posts, especially with poor or no punctuation. Just getting old & cranky maybe.....

My only experience with QA is that a friend bought a Yanmar 1500 with a QA on the box scraper & could not get it tilted back far enough to stop it from digging in aggressively. The box was the only three point implement he had, so he removed the quick attach & then it worked great. I think he is going to sell the QA.

Haven't talked to him about the QA recently, but he's between 5 & 6 hrs from Durango. (we vacation near Dolores quite often) About the closest searchable place near him is "blue ridge lake az".... if you google map that you will be close.

Thanks for the kind offer Tony, we get up there every couple of years, for fishing & get away. Just the two of us, plus assorted dogs. We spent 2 weeks in the area last year. My folks started taking us there in 1965.
Funny you should mention the DURANGO/SILVERTON railroad....kind of a touchy subject with me. I have tried twice over the last 35+ yrs to take the train trip, and both times, found the parking lot full of cops when we arrived. We inquired and were told that nearly every car in the lot had been broken into, both times. We were less motivated to ride the train after that.... once maybe, but two times in a row.... I think someone's trying to tell me something.:)
I worked for a guy who would take a couple buddies, a back pack & fly rod, and get off at a watering stop on the way out, spend a week hiking & fishing, then reboard on a return trip. I was never that confident in my fishing ability.:)
And I will ask my friend about the QA next time we talk.
