I'd buy a Farmall M w/ 3 pt so you can run a mower/blade.

If you are thinking 5488 which is a great option, hell go with a 3788 or similar.

I have never seen anyone so obsessed with the Farmall M as you are Daniel. I'm IH through and through, but if someone gave me an M, I'd sell it.... and you would be the first guy I'd call, too!

I have my reasons.....in all honesty I'm saving up for a SMTA-D at this point, it's what I REALLY want.

OK, if you get one of those we will all petition Roland to make it the banner tractor for a week. That's a whole lot of "rare" under that 2150 red.

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.
