Cub Cadet new and old
Well I just thought I give up the dirt here.
I have 2 cubs ole 147 w/ loader and a 104 that has 106 decals (was on when I bought it.) I also had a Snapper ZT-1844 I must confess that I hated it. I have more deviates in my yard than the golf coarse. That stupid thing was always spinning it wheels. Well yesterday it was making a god awful noise. I took it to the dealer this morning, I had to be resuscitated when told me how much it was going to be to fix it.(well almost)   He (the mechanic) said I 'd be better off to trade it on a new one. Since a good unit is worth 3200 buckeyes, mine minus the 700 to 900 for repair work would be worth 1800 smackers for trade-in. So I traded for a 1045 even-up 20 hp Kohler power plant 46" deck. I was considering a 1054 which was larger bigger tires,but it wouldn't fit through the shed door opening. All I need is something to do the light work so I can start mounting the tiller on the 104. Well I gave it a test run this after noon. To my surprise it did rather well. It only spun once in my test and I didn't get the tires loaded yet. Everything seems to work rather well. Time will tell. I still think compared to the classics they are rather flimsy. Hey before anyone says anything, I already know that they are only mowers. The light work. but thats what I needed. heck I couldn't even pull a cart of mulch up the hill with the Snapper zero turn. ole 147

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.
