It might even be a 12hp since they seem to be a much more popular size replacement vs a 10hp.
If it is in deed still 10hp, the thrower is likely the 36" wide model.
Yeah, Maybe not the best example for what I was trying to convey.. But the guys in PA have a bunch of options when it comes to Cubs. I may have to go spend a weekend at my sisters and do some shopping. The 24' trailer should come with me

There are also a bunch of newer Cubs listed with only several hundred hours on them. Unfortunately I've heard that the post-MTD version of the Cub is not of the same quality (?) No idea if that is true or not. Heard it from lots of different people though.

What you have heard is 100% true. Plus they are really just lawn mowers unless you spend a lot of money. Get an old one.. THEY ARE GREAT!!!!

That one looks, and sounds, like a wore out tractor for too much money. The second one the op posted looks like the best deal.

I would agree however I think I would rather have the 149 for less money. Seems like some of the ugly ones tend to run best LOL.. Plus it gives ya more "play time" in the garage! And that's always fun

I may just be partial to the 147 because I don't have one yet

I'm not a narrow frame guy. Oh, there's nothing wrong with them, but I gravitate to the spread frame tractors. Wide frames and spread frames can share attachments.

That's true. I have seen a lot more wide frame attachments for sale vs narrow frame. I love my 126 but I find myself on one of the 129's most often.

If your talking about the second one with the brown seat... Don't be afraid to try and low ball him some. He was asking like 475$. Hit him with 2 or 300$ if you like it.

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.
