Maybe light plow, garden stuff, and of course, mow. I want one that it's still affordable, dependable, parts are easy to come by, etc. Everyone has their own opinion to this, but what I'm really looking for, is what to stay away from.

Hey Jed. John Here.
No Cub falls into the "stay away" category.
Quietlines (wide frame, easy to work on) - stay away if you don't want to look for -OR- perform the motor mount upgrade. Removing engine & mount required. Easy / fun if you're into it
Any wideframe - easy to work on. 149 is my favorite worker. Hydraulic lift & lights!
Any narrow frame - cool, a bit harder to work on. Fully capable. Coolest looking!
Hydro vs gear? your choice. Just my humble opinions!
