Exclamation Battle of the Big Boys !

CCC 2072 SGT vs. JD 400 SGT

Let the battle begin !

Deck .

60" Haban , built like a rock , belt driven , easily repaired if ever necessary .

JD 60" , stamped metal , shaft drive w/gearbox , lots of curves , prone to rust .

The winner .........................


Nice curves should be left to the female species . Heavy metal wins in the field , hands down !

Round 1 goes to CCC !

( Im slightly biased so we know where this is going )

I vote for the 2072! It even has a cup holder! The JD has too many curves for my liking. Ill take straight heavy steel any day over styling.

BUT, the devils advocate:

I own a 1872, I mowed with a 14hp 108 for years,

Now the BUT,

The John Deeres in general have a higher tip speed mower deck.

The JDs therefore do a little nicer job of cutting grass in tough conditions.

That is according to the admission by my Cub Cadet dealer, that works on both.

How bout the 2 speed rear end in the 400. Makes for a nice quick get away!

One major down fall the 400 has though, is that of all the other JDs thats out their, ONLY attachments that were made for a 400 will fit. Nothing else will interchange so that can be a pain when in need for tiller, snow blower, front blade etc...

I wouldnt kick either one of those fine machines out of my stable though.

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.
