Just curious as to what's the hardest your cub regularly gets worked? I would say plowing would be pretty hard overall, but most people don't plow year round so I wouldn't count that as "regular" work.
So on a regular basis how or what's the hardest you work your cub???

Mowing the lawn with my 50C deck, or pulling my trailer loaded with yard waste. That is pretty much a daily thing if it isn't raining

Throwing the 'wet cement' snow we get here in the winter would be my hardest job. I can kill the 18 hp engine in my 782 with the 36" snowthrower if I'm not careful.

The 100 doesn't work hard at all, it breezes through the work. When I get the 149, I'll work it. I'd like to find a back blade and some other attachments.

Though I don't have a snow blower or thrower, I would have to agree with Matt - blowing snow would be pretty hard on the engine of any machine. Pushing snow, dirt or plowing through ground would be hard on the entire drive train, I would think. Mowing is usually hard on the deck and pto components and on the engine if the machine is asked to mow down tall and/or thick grass.

I can't find it on the net now, but about a year ago on RFD TV they had a logging show and a family in western NC used old GTs to skid logs out of the woods. They did selective timbering for speciality products/people. I can't remember what brand(s) they used, but I would say that would be pretty hard on a GT. I've saw a similar thing using mules, but they used GTs.

The hardest things my 100 does, is pull the plow, and cultivator.
But I am building a rear blade, so I think that will put some strain on things a bit. Inventing new ways to use a Cub Cadet; Cadet Farmer |

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.
