That's the nice thing about the 3000 series. They are the best mowing machines Cub ever built.

Would they use the same decks as the 2000 series?

The 3000 series are different than all the others. The decks are shaft driven off of a pto shaft that is belt driven from a banded belt. The striping comes from how the height is adjusted. The rear of the deck has 4 rollers that are adjusted to get the height you need. The deck height is not adjusted from the tractor but on the newer ones it is. You lower the deck until the weight is on the rear rollers and the front 2 casters. The complete width of the mowed area is then rolled from the rear rollers and the 2 rear tires. I didn't check mine yet but the blade tip speed seems a lot faster then my 82 series. I think these are good mowers but I don't think they would pull a plow very well and I wouldn't consider them in the same class as our GT's or SGT's.

Thanks for the comments on the yard. The 48" deck seems to stripe better than the 60". I really like this tractor especially the liquid cooled engine and the differential lock. I do agree that the older gt and sgt seem to be heavier and would do better with a plow, but for mowing this beats them in quality of cut.

Got my pipe, rain cap, and air cleaner painted black..And put on the 100.
Also put my weights on the new filled 8.50s..And let some air out to get the tires softer. Hooked it to the practice sled, 2nd with full throttle...And she pulled the front wheels off the ground and took off with no traction issues! I'm very confident that she will do good tomorrow!

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.
