New in Nashville...and it's raining. :(
Son and I just picked up a 290 hour 2003 John Deere GX335 and and unexpectedly an 850 hour 1988 Cub Cadet 1811 from a seller this weekend. I really have no idea what the 1811 is yet but I think it will help me smooth my extremely bumpy 1 acre yard out this year. Both came with all manuals and the 1811 even had the original receipt ($4400 with a 38" deck and 3 point hitch). They've basically been stored and used a little yearly since the original buyer passed 15 years ago.
I'm (and especially wife) are so darn tired of trying to keep my little Craftsman hand me down mowers running that I just can't wait until it stops raining to just drive these around the yard or maybe over to the liquor store. George Jones used to live just south of us, times have changed though. The 1811 is in very good shape but does need some clean up and I'm going to do fluids and filters and stuff. The seller has a farm and several BIG tractors and hadn't even started getting it ready to sell yet. It started just fine the other day with a mix of nobody knew how old gas with a little new gas thrown in. Anyway, I'm as excited as a kid waiting for Christmas. (Dear Santa, all I want now is a decent rear tiller.) David |

Welcome to OCC....
The 1811 is a popular model, and a good sound tractor.

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.
