What do you like doing the best?
 
Here's an interesting question that may or may not have been asked before:

what do you like doing with your Cub the most?

IE
pushing snow/dirt/stones etc
mowing
rototilling
plowing
running a chipper/shredder
just driving it around
snow throwing/blowing
using some sort of other sleeve hitch attachment (cultivator, planter etc)
loader

I'm going to cast my vote for mowing. I like watching the grass shoot out (never liked mulching mowers for that reason) and I love the smell & look of a freshly cut lawn.

I've only got one cub so I can't say "I like using __________ for _________."

What's yours?

1st choice: Mowing with my 1415

2nd choice: Driving my 782 and 129 around, whether it be to go get the mail or driving around at Tractor Shows.

I love mowing with the 149 and 169 the best.
Its fun to push snow or plow the garden ect.. but mowing is my favorite activity.

That's a hard question...lol! I enjoy using my cubs for all the chores. :beerchug:

I like working them hard. Well the 1650 at least. Not so much on the 100, the armstrong lift kinda takes the fun out of it.

I have a craftsman johnny bucket jr. look a like on the 1650 and love using the crap out of it. The hydraulics on that 1650 are so strong I can"t believe it. It'll pick up the whole bucket full of wet crushed granite. Super heavy!!

Id saying plowing at plowdays is number one, otherwise blading the drive way is fun to

cubby102 05-08-2013 08:12 AM

mowing would have to be my #1, right behind that comes pushing snow/dirt, then of course i like anything to really make them work as pulling logs out of the timber to cut for firewood

1450
 
After spending considerable time to restore mine ... just sitting on it and turning the key and it purring away is great .... anything attached to it ... all the better !

I'm easily amused I guess :biggrin2:

On my LTX 1046 I love to mow, drink a cold one and have a Camel hanging out of my mouth.
On the 125 CC I like pulling out stumps, plowing snow or just taking a cruze.
The "O" is just for showing off or spreading fertlizer.
BUT most of all........ I like racin any of them w/ the boys.....heck I'll even drive the slow one and lose once n a while.. lol

My "O" is just to have, the 71/121 is just a play toy. The 2182 and 2284 are for work and killing grass fast. The 1572, jury is out on that one. :biggrin2:

OK that I get! I have the same problem. I'm guessing that is part of a hitch for a Cat D11 adapted to a Cub, LMAO. :biggrin2:

CADplans 05-08-2013 08:36 PM

That is my rear axle mount blade,

http://i1104.photobucket.com/albums/...077640x394.jpg

It pushes snow real well

NO CAT parts were injured in the making of this attachment!! :biggrin2:

EricR 05-08-2013 08:56 PM

What I enjoy the most is blowing snow with the old.

http://i1114.photobucket.com/albums/...e1169/1021.jpg

And the new.

Yeah I may live in the rust belt but I have always enjoyed doing the winter thing the most.

Shaner 05-08-2013 10:23 PM

Mine used to be mowing with the sickle bar but I've since sold the sickle so the 122 cub has sat since September 2012.

Donovan M. 05-09-2013 11:46 AM

Thats a hard one, but I like mowing with my 100R and plowing with my 1810.

nikster 05-09-2013 12:09 PM

donnelly.me 05-10-2013 08:53 AM

I love to plow snow in the winter and all the rest of the year just ride around and enjoy the payoff from getting the old girl running! And of course any hard work I can throw at her!

fpatd 05-14-2013 09:34 AM
