For mowing, 1st and 2nd are too slow, 3rd is too fast!

I know at least 5 cub owners that have made that comment.

There are very few 6 foot cut mowers running around, I happen to have lucked into one, and it has a 4 speed gear drive transmission, just right for mowing, but, alas, it is not yellow!

My 6 foot mower is 24HP, I would not recommend less than that for a 6 foot wide cut.
