When my next door neighbor decided it was time for a new mower, I tried my best to convince him to get an older Cub Cadet.
Instead he decided on a 1000 series new cub cadet and ended up purchasing it from a big box store because it was $50 less than the dealer.
It was ok for the first year but the second year he started having problems. The best was when he blew out the drive belt and asked "
Can you use your old Cub Cadet to tow mine up to the garage? " Since the front bumper on his was nothing more than sheetmetal, I had to drag it backwards. I even made sure to go up the steepest part of his yard
He did admit he should have listened to me

There are nine houses from the intersection to my house. Three of those have older Cub Cadets
