Default Cubs...
I don't have "real" cubs; just those cyclops machines produced by MTD stamped made in Cleveland, Ohio from the 90's.

I don't think I could afford to buy a real IH Cub Cadet. They are antiques! And we all know that antiques are more rare and in demand, fetching a much higher price in the market today!!

Even thought it says Ohio Your Cub was also Built In Brownsville, which did Not close Until the Mid-2000's starting in 2011, is when They really became Ohio Cub Cadets

The HQ's outside Cleveland and Cub had a separate HQ next door to the MTD HQ

BTW, the frame of the cyclops was basically an IH-designed frame with some MTD updates, IE the steering Tower. MTD did not start their own frame Until the Lawn tractors In the Late 1980s, then the 2000 series In 1994, and finally the 3000 series in 1998.

Sergeant, I appreciate you sharing your knowledge about the IH/Cub Cadet history of manufacturing in various places and after acquisitions. Very interesting!!

What makes OCC great, is people like yourself, willing to take the time to enlighten others about the many unknown facts that pertain the the Cubs we love and enjoy! Thanks so much!!

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.
