Default 3 tractors for 1

hello everyone .

I have 3 tractors. A cub 100 hydraulic lift with a plow. A 125 with hydraulic lift and qa42 snow thrower, and a LT1050 with 50" mowing deck. I'm thinking of getting rid of the three tractors and buying 1 to do the three jobs. I would like hydraulic lift on the new one. A front mounted snow blower and a mowing deck no bigger than 50". I know they don't build the new ones like the GT tractors but does anyone have some input on a good quality machine. As much as I like my cubs, I'm open to a different brand. i was looking at the xt3 series but the snowblower is manual lift. I do dig the cast iron rear end. So needless to to say, I'm open for some input.

Why not go with a newer Cadet, such as a 782 or an 1811? They run 50" decks just fine, have hydro, and are a little more "modern"--yet still built old school tough.

I would recommend a CC super I like the 72 series but the 82 series is good too. Easily would do what you need.

Simplicity makes a nice mower.Used Sunstars and Sovereigns are pricey though.

I would choose the Sovereign with the Command or Legacy over the Sunstar.

If I was gonna buy a new compact tractor, it would be one of the Kubots BX. Belly mower, front end loader and a back hoe? I would never have to do anymore lifting or digging. PS: I will take that 100 off your hands.

thanks for the info guys .ill write down those reccomendations...I to started looking at compact tractors.little deisals and with that opened another can of worms .seen a kabota bx1500 with front loader no belly mower but emaculate for 7500 381 hrs on it but with that is 15hp deisal enough to run the 48" blower few complaints online. and by the time I'm done getting what I want I'm sure ill be over 10 grand, so I started looking for exactly what I want new Kubota 18 hp with front blower and 60" deck 17 grand out the door..now I'm crappin my pants.ha hope you got a laugh out of that.so I'm back to a garden tractor with some sort of hydraulic lift for blower and cutting deck..story of my life ha..thanks for the input I'm back on a mission..and Ronnie I'm sure my dads 100 would be well taken care of

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.
