I'm trying to help a friend find a good CC.
I own a 1650.. and know nothing about newer stuff. He would like a box or blade and needs a mower deck. Preferably a large deck. We are in north Texas if anyone here knows of a good tractor. He has 3.5 acres to cut. Maybe he needs something bigger than a cub. Mike |

3 and a half acres is enough to keep him busy for a while. Just my 2 cents, a Super with a 60" Haban and a Swisher 60" tow behind whould be my weapon of choice. I cut 15 acres twice a year with a Kubota BX 2660 with a 60" finish mower and two 60" Swishers behind that so it cuts 12' at a pass.

Maybe you should get one of these Sam..... Only one engine that way!!
![]() ![]() TD1700.jpg On a separate note: I think a SGT would be more than adequate. If I'm going to mow 3 acres, I'd prefer a front mount ZTR mower, but you can't put a box blade on them! ![]() All supers are good. Sam likes the "one eyed" ones

I'm not sure what you mean on the first half.... But the Cyclops is what I was referring to as "one eyed"... 982's have 2 headlights, they are not a cyclops. Sam Mac's avatar is a cyclops....

Sam Mac likes Cyclops, but, not enough to keep them all!!
![]() There are a couple BIG plus' to a wider deck One is in error of driving. The amount you overlap and loose each pass is a bigger percentage on a small deck. It seems like a 60" deck cuts twice as fast as a 44" deck. That is hard to believe, until you experience it!! ![]() Maybe it is the power steering, steering brakes, and more HP!! ![]() An even bigger plus is the even result of cutting with a wide deck. I have one deck that is bigger than 60", it makes the grass look like a pool table. The smaller deck dips into EVERY hole/depression. The big deck passes right over. SMOOTH!!

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
