B.V.

You need to consider exactly what you are going
to be doing with the Lawn Tractor.

The Cub Cadet I believe is more tractor like
and would perform better for garden chores than
the Sears.

For Mowing and pulling a small trailer, I'm
not sure it matters although I like the Cub Cadet
Brand Better.

I've got two 123, one 125 and just got a
127 Cub Cadet (all 12hp models). In my opinion
they are indestructable.

The hydro units simply don't break even when
you double the HP (I did this to one of the 123's).

I use two of them for heavy field work (plow,
disc, rake, scraper, & snow plow) and the other
two for mowing and pulling a wagon.

As far as the brand name goes its great, IH did
a great job of developing this line of small garden
tractors.

MTD who now ownes Cub Cadet seems from all
indications is continuing on with this.

I consider the Cub Cadet very easy to work on
and have restored a number of them. But, I'm not
the typical owner and consider myself very
experienced.

Good Luck

Ed

: My dad is looking in to buying a cub cadet
HDS 2165 tractor and wanted to know if anyone
out there is familiar with them. How trustworthy
are they and are repairs difficult?
He's owned the same Sears brand tractor for
20 years and loved it. He's a little timid about
getting a new one. Thanks
