I've got a John Deere 5510 tractor with a 10A backhoe. I've had it for about 6 years and have always wished that I had spent the money on a used backhoe or rubber tracked hoe rather than on the 10A. The 10A has rails that spread the stress out to the tractor frame rather than just the three point, but that makes it more time consuming to hook it onto the tractor. If I had the money for the 10A back I wouldn't buy it again. It's too awkward to hook up, it's too time consuming when digging a long trench to switch between the tractor seat and the backhoe seat, and the breakout force doesn't seem all that impressive. Just my opinion.
