Default Call me Stupid

Ok been on here for a while and with all the good information that is shared I have a really dumb question and maybe someone has already asked this. In most conversations we refer to the tractor we are talking about as a 100, 128 and so on, but then I see something mentioned that all the 1x8/9 series have this or that.

What is the 1x6/7 1x8/9 referring too?

When people say 1x6 or 1x7 or whatever the case may be, they are referring to a series of machines, not just a specific one.

For example, 1x7 series would be a 107, 127, 147. A 1x9 series would be the 109, 129, 149, 169. See what I mean?

To take what Ryan said a step further, the numbering sequence means more than a series.

Lets use the 1X8/9 series.

All the even numbers are gear drives: 86, 108, 128

The odd numbers are hydrostats: 109, 129, 149, 169

The first numbers are the engines size: 86= 8 HP; 108/9= 10 hp; 128/9= 12 HP and 169= 16 hp.

Why the smallest tractor in these series doesn't follow this set of rules I do not know. The 86 is part of the 1X8/9's, the 73 is part of the 1X6/7 series.... It's weird. Now, this number pattern stopped at the QL (Quietline) series 800-1650. After that, the tractor/series numbers really do not mean anything.

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.
