Default The new Cub Cadet
I was to the Grange Fair today with a friend from down conry. (slang)
He purchased a new Cub Cadet LTX 1045.
It seems to be ok for a new machine. 12" turn Radius. Runs smother than my 2 cubs. not as loud either. Buuuuuut it wont do as much work as my cubies will.:biggrin2.gif:
I tore down my tiller today, going to paint it soon.
I need to get some sandblasting done first.
Wish I had a place to sand blast.

I think that the only new cubs worth a crap are the 3000 series and maybe the 2500's. They sure have come a long way down from where they used to be!

Default only the mow
Well he only mows and pulls a cart around. He was using an old Craftsman gear jammer. I even like the new ones for mowing they get around so well.
Better than that peace of crap Snapper zero turn I use to use.
The thing was always spinning and tearing up my grass. I use my 104 marked as 106 never spins or digs up my lawn. I don't turn as good as the new ones though. Maybe I'll get one of these new fangled mowers, they are almost giving them away.

You're right, as far as mowers go they are nice for that. The point I was making was that back in the day you bought a tractor that was your mower and you could also plow, till, snow blow, rake, cultivate with it. Nowadays if you want to do all of that with just one tractor you have to spend a fortune.

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.
