While plowing today the guy 2 tractors ahead of me got stuck, me and the guy in front of me helped him get it out of the furrow and as we turned to go back to our tractors he started plowing again but when he dropped back into the furrow he got tossed off the tractor. When he fell he didn't clear the seat with his leg and his foot got caught between the seat and dash tower, luckily as he fell he pulled the throttle all the way down and he only got drug about 3 or 4 feet before the tractor stalled out. It took 2 of us to get his foot unstuck and he was clearly shaken by the experience which I'm pretty sure that would scare the crap out of anybody. I was just glad he didn't get hurt and that I was able to help.

IH wins every time. Was that a real question?


Good job on the save, Tim! Even a garden tractor can get the best of us sometimes.

Once my cub started to act up and I got separated from Lew and the rest of the cubs I spent the rest of the day following green tractors and it was a whole lot of sit and wait. I was following a JD that was the size of a super and he had it loaded down with weight and I had to stop every 20ft or so to keep from running him over or because he got stuck.

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.
