Not just a S model thing.
I have telescoping arms on some of my Fords and yes they do help when hooking to implements, but the loose movement in those lifts arms makes adjusting some implements to run properly near impossible.
My 89 model 6610 Series II did not come with telescoping lift arms, nor did it come with the interchangeable ball option, something I wish some of my other tractors didn't have. It's also not a stripped down model, it has dual power, deluxe hydraulics with 4 remotes and is also a cab model.
The standard 10 series production ended in 93 when the 30 and 40 series tractors were introduced, the S models where a continuation of a few 10 series models that still looked like a 10 series but shared some components of the newer 30-40 series tractors.
Parts aren't hard to get, one just needs to till the parts people what year model they have and that it is a S model.
If you have a 6610S and tell the parts person you need a part for a 6610, they'll look up the wrong tractor and likely give you the wrong part.
Personally I like the Series II models or ones build after 85, they have the upgraded hydrostatic steering instead of the leak prone mechanical columns. Dual power isn't a necessity but I find it very useful when baling hay, the 8x2 trans is pretty much standard on a open station models and super dependable
The deluxe dual pump hydraulics isn't a necessity but the higher flow rate mades a big difference when using a loader.
If I'm looking for certain features on a tractor and the add doesn't mention or show a photo I call and ask.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
