Default Ok, so not all Cub owners are that smart

Browsing youtube, I came across this gem of lawn mower accident videos. Here's a link to the whole video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FjJ_PFmIonQ

And a link to the Cub Cadet moment (followed immediately by yet another Deere )

http://youtu.be/FjJ_PFmIonQ?t=2m25s

If you'll carefully notice, several of the machines happen to be big box store, but after those, the Green machine comes in a close 2nd for stupidest owners

I think many of these people were born just to make us look smart.

If you look a some of the PO mods you see on here that people find when they buy a used cub or ones you see on c-list is not surprising.

I think about half the "PO mods" we actually did on our own but we are too embarrassed to admit it. Just blame it on the PO.

I couldn't agree more, guys

You wonder if some of those guys have ever loaded a tractor on a trailer before because clearly, more gas is not the answer!

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.
