IH built over 500,000 Cub Cadets, then in 1982 MTD, aka The Cub Cadet Corp. took over and built a lot more.
Not sure how many L&G tractors Deere made.
I grew up about 20 miles east of Moline, Ill. lots of Cub Cadets around, lots of Deere's, especially with the company discount all the Deere employees got. No and I mean Zero Jacobsons, Snappers, very very few Bolens, and most of the Simplicity's were rear engine riders or the little lawn tractors. There was one Wheel Horse dealer and he must have been really lazy, never saw a Wheel Horse anywhere around.
I have four Cub Cadets. 52 year old model 70, 49 year old model 72, 37 year old 982, and a 1-1/2 year old CC Tank zero turn. Dad bought the 70 brand new in 1965, hard telling how many thousands of hours I put on it, wore out three 7&8 hp Kohler engines in it, I bought the 72 in 1981, bought the 982 in 2000. Had a 129 I bought as a basket case in 1990 and rebuilt/restored and sold in 2006. Cub Cadets are like Farmall M's and H's, no telling how long they'll last, but longer than Me is a given.

I worked as a machinist and engine erector, with time spent overseas. I have always had a love for machinery, and an appreciation for farming and farm machinery. I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Not a place one would associate with farms or farm machinery. I credit my parents for instilling a lot of good values, a respect for learning, a knowledge of various skills and a little knowledge of farming in me, amo
