Default My dilemma

Well guys I may have to make a choice. I have had a 75 1450 with a 50 in deck thats in very cood cond. It has a three point and a QA36a snow thrower. In the other corner I have just picked up 1968 105 in very good cond also. It came with a QA36 snow thrower,#1 tiller w/belts and gearbox,48 in deck that will need a little work. I know the tiller will work on both and the Qa36a thrower will work on both. The problem is the wife. She dosent want me to keep two. I have owned the W/F for 3-4 years now and know it pritty good, I am new to N/F. The question is how well will the 10hp 105 do tilling throwing and playing. When compared to the 14hp 1450. Granted I dont use this every day, its a toy-yard mule-other tool. I really like the older looking 105. I thinks its how old it is that intregs me. Oh yea now that I visited camarokidz28 cub collection now I have yellow fever (Thanks Denny!) I know its one man's opinion but let me know what you think. I will post pics later. Sorry so long winded!
Thanks,Rich

Do you tell your wife that she can't have any more of whatever it is that she collects?

The 1450 is twice the tractor the 105 is. More power and much easier to work on. Unless you have very soft, sandy soil, the 105 would be a very anemic tiller tractor. 14 hp would also be better for the snowthrower.

I would have to agree with Matt on this!
My wife is pretty good about not minding a growing collection of Cubs, if she did then we would have a problem. My collection will grow only limited by money!

I also agree. I'd have to keep the 1450, rather than the 105.

Yep, the 1450 has the power you need for all your attachments. Maybe you should ask your wife how many pairs of shoes she has? And you only want 2 tractors.............

Yea, I know the 1450 is the brut out of the two,and it has all the goodies on it. I guess I wanted to here that the 10hp would do the job,but from what I am hearing I will keep the 1450. I bought it not running. It has a cracked piston. So I guess I will fix and sell. It is a bute. I will post pics tonight.

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.
