So, 1994 - 1999 2000 Series. Were these the "transition" years? The end of the true Cub Cadet built tractors? Looks like a clean machine.

Those hours look awfully low! I would check tire and front end wear and look for dirt in places you just can't clean really well to see if it matches up to the hours. For $700, that looks like a good machine for working. You buying or just window shopping?

That is a 2160AGS stay as far away from it as you can. They transmission is a 6 speed with a forward and reverse wet clutch. It is not a hydro but many people think they are and they slip the clutch's and burn them up. The AGS tractors have a lever to select the gear on the right fender the.

If the hour meter is correct it may be worth it. Best way to test the clutch to see if it's cooked is to put it in 6th gear and see if the clutch slips going up a hill. If it slips walk away.

I like them for organ donors. Take the engine and put it in a real tractor sell as many of the other parts as you can then haul the rest to the scrap yard.

According to tractordata.com the 2160 is an auto gear but the 2165 is hydrostatic.

Hmmm, that's a tough choice, shift lever or cup holder? I think cup holder wins!

That is debatable. But the last of the true IH designed cubs ended in 1989. Starting in 1990 (w/ S/N: 800,000>), was the CCC/MTD designed tractors.

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.
