I purchased a garden tractor and loader together a couple of years ago for $1500. I think I got a good deal and I have had to do a couple of things to it, but not really a big deal.
I think you will lucky to find that deal, probably you should figure around $2500 and it may take you awhile to find it. I think everybody that thinks they suck are expecting them to be like a skid steer loader. They are not, but what they can do, is pick something up out of your back yard and go through the gate and put it in the back of your truck. All while not leaving 6" tracks through the yard. They can dig somewhat, but when I needed to take out a retaining wall, I used a tiller to break up the ground, then the loader to remove the dirt. Can you do it a whole bunch faster with a skid steer? Damn right, but price buying one or renting one. I use it like a second pair of hands. I have a bad back, so I pick things up and move them with it. Best $1500 ever spent!!!!! Here is a pic of me moving a large tree limb, no way I could done that by hand. Randy

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.
