New member from PA- story of my CC 3206
Hi all,
My name is Tom. I teach 7-12 instrumental music in central(ish) PA and at a local university. When I'm not teaching, I'm rebuilding cars and tractors. I've owned dozens of Cubs over the years, but currently own a CC 128 w/creeper and recently sold my newer XT2 in favor of a 3206. I picked up the 3206 for $500 and was told it was serviced regularly and needed nothing. That wasn't true, but the price was great so I couldn't complain. The 3206 needed a full service and a new rear diff lock cable. I've performed a couple of the "speed mods" to make it go faster and it runs/mowers absolutely perfectly. Unless I'm misinformed, I believe a previous owner swapped in a Kohler 22hp motor since they came with a 20hp engine. I know it's an MTD product but have no complaints about build quality or reliability. A few weeks back, I picked up a GT3200 on Marketplace for $120. The motor ran great but the hydro wasn't working. The sheet metal though was really nice. I swapped everything over onto my 3206, which is why the tail lights are different. Both lenses were absent from my 3206, and at over $100 each... no thank you. I picked these lights up at Harbor Freight for $6 for the pair. Finally, I welded up a hitch for the back to pull my 6X12 trailer around. I've been impressed by the strength of the BDU-21L hydro. Thanks for checking it out!

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.
