Default Deere Lover, NOT
I was standing in line at a peach stand yesterday and started talking to my neighbor in line. He moved here 15 years ago from Ohio and told me he had to sell his Cub Cadet before the move. When he moved here he couldn't find another Cub so he bought one of the green machines. He absolutely hated that Deere and ended up trading for something else.
While we were talking an old man pulled up acting like he was in a hurry and just being rude in general. When the stand opened he jumped line in front of several people at the front, got his peaches, and sped off. I commented on the whole thing to my new friend and he said "didn't you see the John Deere hat he was wearing?" "Somebody stole his John Deere last night and he was trying to get home to close the gate before they brought it back!"

THAT made my day!

That's funny. I've never liked the Deeres and never will. If it runs like a Deere it smells like a john.

That was funny! I love to crack jokes about JD, because JD thinks they made the better garden tractor. Not so, IH Cub Cadet made the better garden tractor!

But still, JD has always been , and that is a good tractor, make no mistake about that!

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.
