I know some or most on this site are only Cub Cadets. But me on the other hand I happen to own one of the older craftsmen models. It has a briggs 18 v-twin 44 inch cut. Was real proud of this mower until the Cub came along. Now I can't ride it and I have put in a lot of work keeping the craftsman together. Pull it out try to use it. Nope put it back on the shelf and get the Cub out.
The guy I got the Cub from (wives grandfather) turned to team yellow and green and every time we get to talking mowers. Tells me how he wishes he never went green and stayed yellow. I used his mower once don't remember what model it was for a fair comparison (it was a garden tractor). And in my opinion it just didn't stack up to the Cub. Guess what I'm gettin at is this Cubs got me spoiled and nothing seems to come close it.
