I have supers and have owned 5 or 6 Farmall cubs and still have one. If you want to do any Garden work plowing, discing, cultivating, planting, fertilizing ect you can't beat a cub I grew up doing all the above. My dad used to raise 90,000 tomato plants every year. The cub even though it does not have a live PTO it was very popular in the 50s and 60s for cutting grass. I would not recommend for finish lawn work but they are great for cutting down field grass. I spent many hours cutting acres upon acres of two foot high field grass. The super is a far superior finish mower with a hydro, power steering and is much more nimble. I would take a 1572 or 1772 over a 982 in a heartbeat. Nothing wrong with the cyclops but I prefer metal over plastic. The field these tractors are sitting in were all tomatoes when I was a kid.
