I had a lawn sweeper until I used Gator blades, now I don't need it.
Before and after. All I did was mow and only hit a couple rows twice.

I would say my snowthrower is my MVI. My driveway is tough to plow with a pickup truck because of tight corners, and the thrower clears the snow so far from the driveway I can have several storms come through and not have any trouble with the banks closing in on the drive. What a great implement.

I don't have any attachments in the $2-300.00 range. I'm bummed. :beerchug:

As my id implies, snow blower. It's why I got a cub in the first place, I would also have to agree with Jonathan that the cab is all part of the deal, built that cab before we had the first snow with the cub. I walked behind a blower for 14 years up here, not fun or I'm too old.

That being said, after seeing the endorsements for the lawn sweeper my interest is piqued, my little yard is surrounded by big maples and now even a good leaf blower is starting to hurt.

My 2B tiller is, without a doubt, my favorite, most used IH Cub Cadet attachment. The 610 front loader on the 7264 is also used almost every week. I move mountains of snow with it in the winter and lots of other stuff during the rest of the year.

I will be the dissenting voice. Firstly, since mower decks are apparently but not literally excluded (LOL), I would pick the tiller. Since I have a large walk behind blower for our Canadian winters here between Lake Huron and Lake Erie, I don't want a blower on the tractor. Plus the walk behind snowblower with its winter engine is better suited for winter temps than the tractor due to a carb jetset for cold temps and no air filter to clog with blowing snow....which we have a lot of.

So, tiller is #1. That cub cadet 400 tiller saves my back the most. It is powerful and digs down to 8-10 inches deep if I let it. It rocks.

Second would be sprayer. Third the sleeve hitch de-thatcher.

+2 on the Gators!
for 30 years we raked leaves,--- when the kids were home they did it.
When they left I tried several methods including raking with the side delivery hay rake and putting them into the manure spreader for the field.
Now gators with a block off plug and a few trips during the fall season and no extra work.
Can't thank the inventor enough!

Mine is the front blade.

My boys say it's the ski rope from the boat and a skateboard. :biggrin2:
