Hello from new Cub owner
 

Hey guys,

I bought my first Cub 2 weeks ago and stumbled into all of this by accident. I just built a house near Hershey, PA and I have just under 2 acres, so I was looking for a mower/tractor with a lot of versatility. Didn't really have a brand in mind, but I was unimpressed with what I was seeing at the Big Box stores. I grew up on a farm and have driven many IH and JD tractors of all sizes. The mower I started on as a kid was JD 318 I think.

Anyway, I was looking at some used tractors and there it was, a gorgeous 129 that had recently been rebuilt. I was smitten and now here I am! My first own tractor and my first Cub Cadet!

There are only 100 hours on the rebuild, and it came with an IH snow blade, a Brinly plow and a set of tire chains.

What do you guys think? From the research I've done so far, I can tell a few things might not be factory correct, but she runs great, I just did my first mow on Saturday.

Welcome to OCC! You have a very nice 129!

Thank you!

Welcome to OCC ..The 129 looks great from this angle :beerchug:

Very nice 129 and welcome to OCC.

NICE SCORE......That's a really nice looking machine, I'm still hunting for my first one, the pickings are far and few between for me... :beatdeadhorse:

Great looking setup and welcome!

Thanks, I didn't fully realize how lucky I was until I got it home and did some research, which probably isn't the smartest way to operate, haha!

Keep looking, I'm sure you'll find one.

You have a beautiful tractor!!!!

Thanks, everyone. This seems like a nice community.
All the credit goes to whomever took care of and rebuilt and then sold my 129, they did a really nice job.
