Default My First Cub Cadet

I am going to look at this girl Monday. The guy says it has been garage kept and used to mow grass only. He wants $500.00 for it. What do you guys think?

It has headlights and a taillight which were optional and a nice add on to have, it also still has the reflectors on the fenders which is rare and they sell for big bucks. The engine is a factory replacement engine ( black engines are a replacement engine) which is good because the engine is newer than the tractor so it probably not as wore out, it also has a rear lift which is about $120 to buy all by itself. From what I can see the deck looks solid, if it runs good and the deck is quite I'd say it's worth the $500 all day long but I'd still try to get it for $400.

The get guy said 500.00 firm and I think he would get mad if I tried to get him down. I have always been a Gravely guy, and have 3 Promaster 300's. I think I have become a mower collector? Here's a picture of the old Gravely's.

500 firm means he doesn't really want to sell it. A decent price but more than I'd pay.

Nice 125, it has some nice options. I'd say it's worth $500, especially having the replacement engine. Nice to see another NC member. I'm near the Fayeteville area.

I think it's worth the asking price.

From the pictures it looks clean and unmolested, unlike a lot of them. If it's what you want, and it runs good it's worth the money.

Heck, the seat is even a 6 pad seat, as well. It is well worth the $5 bills if it runs. If you have buyer remorse, you could part it and make some money....but that is taboo to me if it is a running machine.

As far as you being a mower collector, if you buy it then that will debunk that rumor since it is a garden tractor and can do a lot more than just mow your grass!

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.
