Default Do I really need another?
I have been looking for a snow blower for the 125 before winter, well today I stumbled on a snow blower that also includes a snow blade that would work for my 100, a mower deck and another running 125. I love using our 125 but I'm afraid if I get another I won't want to sell it, is it crazy to have 2 of the same tractors? My wife says yes.

Absolutely not. You can have the blade on one tractor a, blower on the other and a deck on the third one.

I recon you do need another one


I like a blade in one and blower in the other. For smaller amounts of wet heavy snow the blade makes short work. For that foot deep stuff the blower is needed. Laying on the ground in sub freezing weather swapping them isn't any fun. (Am trying to think of messages that will resonate with your wife)

2 is always better, three preferred.

I'm not at all sure how anyone can NOT need multiples of the same machine.

Tell your wife that as you age, it will become increasingly difficult to change implements back and forth.

This quick change for attachments is a bunch of crap, you need a tractor for every attachment. Ask me how I know.

Just found out the snow blower is for a wide frame, does anyone know if It can be converted to use on a narrow frame by changing the mounting rail?

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.
