Needin suggestions for garden tractor
I come to realize i dont know what model of old tractor i need. I do need a full size someday but for now i need to cut about 5 acres grounds and maintain 1/2 mile of gravel road, scrape/fill potholes and clear snow if needed. A tiller would be a plus, besides a cub i am open to sugestions, seen a sutoh 18hp that looks interesting, anyhow seems to be lots of cubs around here, i just don’t know what models are still well built but also have a pressurized oil lube system for the hills. Thanks for any ideas.

If I had to mow that much ground I would definitely want something with Twin cylinder. An older Cub with a single cylinder would get the job done but would be awfully slow compared to a twin. I would look for an 1811, 1812, 1872, 2072 or a cyclops tractor. I'm not overly familiar with which model cyclops tractors would be desirable but i'm sure someone will be along shortly with that info.

Nothing less than a 60 inch for that 5 acres if you are not using a Zero Turn is my suggestion...

If you need to cut 5 acres and maintain a 1/2 mile of road, you need a tractor, not a garden tractor. Honestly, you need a ZTR and a tractor. You won't get anything but mowing and blading done if you get a GT. Go look for a good used zero turn and a 30- 45 hp tractor.

This is my answer for mowing large acreage and doing dirt work. The mower is for sale. I now have a farmer cut the 14 acres I used to mow for hay.

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.
