New XT3 GSX, Very Impressed
I'm excited!...I just put a down payment on a new XT3 GSX yesterday after taking it for a test drive. I highly recommend anyone who might think Cub quality has suffered to take another look and drive one, you might just change your mind, I did. By the way, my first 20 years had many many hours on a 73 and 125 mowing, plowing, pulling stumps just to name a few.
I can't stress it enough on how impressed I was with the build quality and the "heft" of it. The cast iron tranny imo is very substantial and looks ready to do some real work. In fact, I think it would give the old IH tranny a run for the money. I was asking the dealer/owner who is also a Case IH dealer for the big stuff and a Cub Dealer for decades said that plowing soil with one of those would not be a problem and I would have to agree with him based on what I experienced thus far. Thick metal, fabricated deck, power steering, extremely tight turing radius are just a few good things I noticed . I'll follow up with more once I get some hrs on it.

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.
