Default Where the #(_- do some people get there information!?

While browsing through a Facebook cub site this morning, I came across a post on a kt17 series 1 that had thrown a rod. A discussion had gotten started in the comments on the difference between a series 1 and series 2. One guy said the difference is they moved the oil pickup from the left side to the center, that was the only difference. Whhhaaaatttt!? Where does this misinformation even come from!

LMAO....I have seen so much garbage and mis-information on those FaceBook Cub Cadets sites, it is laughable. Those sites remind of the FB CC version of the "the View", a bunch of cackling hens.

I just got on FB, what a riot. I don't even bother with answers on the Cub sites, I have enough to deal with here.

I joined a Cyclops FB site, mentioned that I'm a Mod on OCC, next thing I know the guy that runs it sets me up as a Mod. I don't even know the guy LMAO.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
