Default Check out this Beast

When I was a kid, I always loved tractors. We never had one, so anytime I got around one I was in the seat. I came across this old pic of me driving someone's tractor at our cabin. Thought you guys would get a kick out of this mean machine:

That is a sweet old machine. Don't you wish you had one in that condition now. I sure do. They were as simple as it gets and they did a great job mowing.

That's what I was thinking. It looks like you adjust the mower height by raising or lowering the wheels. Funny.

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.
