Pretty nice Lance! But, I'm not going to "one-up" you. However I'm proud to say I have pulled a 2500 pound yard roller around with my seven-horse k161 model 71, and even bent the fixed draw bar down! Pictures in thread to prove.
Why I like my IH Cub Cadets so much is because they are built strong and tuff. The history also is interesting to me of how the garden tractors came to be. I feel completely confident using my garden tractors. I started out as a young man push mowing 2 full acres of grass. Did not have a lot of time on the weekends for play. Until I found an old Original, by myself asking no more than questions, I got it running and mowed a year or two with it. So, I grew up on IH Cub Cadet, and that's what I'll always have in my garage. Like my grandfather whom liberated France, came home and had only one job retiring from the post office, and only driving Ford LTD's.
IH Cub Cadets are a hell of a tuff garden tractor, and no other manufacture can claim different!
