Default Video of driving the Original

It was a gorgeous evening and the family decided to go out for a cruise around the neighborhood on our Cubs. I drove the 1715 while the wife rode in the trailer with our one son while the other son drove the Original. Luckily, the wife had her video camera to document the "family outing".

It was a little shaky because she was riding in the utility cart but, you get the idea. I think he digs the new Cub.

Cruisin with the Cub

Well, the wife was riding in the trailer behind me so, it got a little shaky. YouTube asked if I wanted to remove the shaky-ness and of course, trying to be gentle on those who might view it, I said yes. After watching the video, you can see how they took it out, by shifting the entire frame! Looks kinda funny to see it that way. I didn't do it. But, it does look better if you focus on the tractor.

I like the way it sounds, and drives. Been doing a constant improvement on the tractor since purchasing it. Fun stuff!

thanks guys!

That's a awesome way to have some family time and a sweet lookin Original. I have an Original also with the 241, I was wondering what size of rear tires do you have on the Original, I'm restoring mine at the moment and would like to have the same setup.

Right now, they are 23x8.5-12 but, my brother has some 23x10.5-12s that I want to try on it soon. These work great so, I don't think you would be disappointed in the least with them.

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.
