Default What is one thing you wish your cub had but doesn't?

Hypothetical question of course, since I've got nothing better to do with my Cub as it sits in the garage with no growing grass to cut or snow falling to push.

What is one thing you wish your cub could have but doesn't?

If you've got more than one, pick one. Just play along for the sake of winter doldrums.

I'll start. I'm going to say power angle for my snow blade. I don't mind the armstrong lift (since the E lift is way long gone) but not having to get off the tractor to change the blade angle would be great.

More ground clearance for the front gauge wheels on the 60" Haban under the 2072. They hit the gravel drive pretty hard between my house and dad's.

I wish there was a way to lock the deck in the raised position on my 982 so I could use the 3pt hitch. I used to run a small Deere compact tractor that had that feature by installing some lock pins.

Hyrdro Lift. I think I'm going to have a beefy right arm after this winter. Then again winter might not come and I won't complain.

More traction when I am stuck in the snow spinning my tires with chains. I've tried to remedy the problem by going on two diets since one diet didn't give me enough to eat, but it's not working fast enough.

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.
