I have a 90 model 6610 Series II 2wd with cab, 8x4 trans with dual power, 4 hydraulic remotes with 5000 hrs.
The tractor is use primarily for pulling a round baler and 15 ft batwing mower, it's been a good tractor with only a few minor issues.
5610 and 6610 are the same chassis other than the engines, 5610 has 256 ci engine making 62 pto hp
6610 has 268 ci engine making 72 pto hp
With the added weight of the cap plus AC system requirements the extra hp of the 6610 is beneficial
A few things to note: 81/85 models had older style integral power steering.
86/up models had hydrostatic power steering which is more desirable in my book, this is also around the time the improved Q cab was introduced.
Any 10 series tractor I purchase will be a Series II
Issues we've had in the past 10 years of owning this tractor
The fine fins on the radiator become easily plugged, regular cleaning is a most to prevent over heating.
Cab models have the shifter located on the right side of the cab, we've had to replace the bushings in the bottom of the shifter.
The AC system has a small leak that requires a can or 2 of freon be added each year, this year the AC quit while baling hay, compressor won't kick in, haven't taken the time to look into it yet.
I'd rather have a 10 series than any of the newer stuff.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
