IMO, especially since all factory, weight considerations and design have been taken into account so keep your order as placed. Relax and don't second guess it. Enjoy your tractor and post some photos with that ssqa after delivered!

I just recently bought a used 1710 with 85 hours on it. I have put just a little over 20 hours on it.
I really like it and it have been a very productive tractor. If I was ordering one, I would order it with SSQA.
I just priced adding SSQA to put on mine but I decided to go with a BXpanded Piranha tooth bar for now.
I have used my 1710 for many tasks and it has been very useful.

If you don't mind me asking, what did you pay for it with such low hours?

A doctor had bought the 1710 when he was building his house. He used it for his driveway, yard and used the backhoe one day for trenching downspouts.
It came with 4,000 lbs bucket pallet forks and a land planer box, 5 gallon can diesel.
I paid 13K for the package.

I drove 3 hours one way to get it but I think it was worth it.
I dug out an oak stump. I leveled out my ditch. I have mowed and used the drag harrow.
Used pallet forks to move brush...

I have the quick attach, just recently added it. I could never go back. I switch from forks to bucket constantly. Also making a mount for my log splitter so I don’t have to remove backhoe and will run it up front. You can never have too many attachments!
