Hi everyone,

Sam here, from Western N.C. I just purchased my first Cub Cadet (122 model) over the weekend. I was in the market for a good solid Garden Tractor to use around the homestead and for gardening and there was one on Craigslist that fit the bill. The previous owner is a fellow member on OCC as well--he pointed me this way, but I had already learned to come here while researching if this was a good purchase for me and for comparing models, etc. ;)

I was lucky enough to get a package deal:

Cub Cadet 122 w/Hydraulic Lift
48" Mowing Deck
Snow Plow
Cultivator Set
Brinly Style Lift/Hitch
Creeper Gear Assembly (uninstalled as of now)
Extra parts & items (carbs, wheels, engine cover, starter/generator, etc.)

Here are some photos of the 122, taken early in the morning as I was tackling some chores around the place and looking for reasons to drive it around the property.

Looks like a worker. Congrats and welcome to the forum!

Welcome to occ, that's a good looking tractor with some nice options. Congrats:beerchug:

Welcome! You've got some nice accessories there!

Very nice find.:beerchug:

Thanks guys. I'm planning to clean it up this weekend if the weather warms up enough, and I've got a charging problem to track down (Going to follow the S/G Charging Test post by R Bedell) too. But I'm happy to have it and it sure beats the pants off my other machines--nice to have a workhorse that is willing and made to work. :)

Welcome to OCC! Glad to see anther NC member.

Okay... I'm having issues :BangPC: For the life of me, I cannot seem to get my images to link into my replies correctly. I have them uploaded to online photo sharing sites (Dropbox & Flickr), and use the HTML script code of "[IMG]link here[/IMG]", but it doesn't show the image. I see where I could upload a photo, but the size limitations seems too small for modern use.

How do you all upload or link to your photos of items?

Thanks!

Try this...... Image Guidelines

I can upload an image as an attachment okay, but I cannot get the "[IMG][/IMG]" to work. It shows up in a post as a broken image link. I'll put a photo I'm trying to post elsewhere below so you can see it. It is 450x412px in width/height and is 27 kb in size.
