Of the 3 you listed I would pick the 2182 with the Kubota gas engine over any air cooled engine in any Cub. I think it should also have the bigger 30mm axles and it will have the CV type drive line. The Kubota engines run very smooth. Good luck!
Doesn't the 2284 also have the CV drive line? I was under the impression that both the 2182 and the 2284 are of the SGT variety and had the CVs. Truthfully, I'm still having a hard time with the plastic toy look of the newer Cubs. The 2182 seems to me to be the best looking of the three.

I take it the 3204 is not as HD as the 2182 and 2284. Am I right? Can you hang a 44C deck on any of these? The 2182 and 2284 both have 60" decks, which I don't need. I have lots of trees and hills and do better with a narrower deck.
