Default Cub Cadet 800 or Haban sickle mower tractor?

guys, i cant decide what to buy, the 800 with a mower deck that has supposedly all rare parts exept muffler box that cuts grass good and runs good with just a puff on smoke on startup, or the 102 with haban sickle bar mower, alot of people told me go for the one with the sickle mower, which i probably will , but i just couldnt decide. what do you think? also i am picking up a different 102 tonight hopefully

I guess it depends on if you want a rare tractor or rare implement. I personally really like my sickle bar. But like I said, it depends on what you want, both are cool finds.

would the haban be just for looks, or to use? I love my sickle and it gets used on roadside trimming/banks a few times a year.

I think if your patient, you could buy both for the same money.

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.
