One pass down the driveway with my 1968 Cub Cadet model 125 with a QA-42 single stage snow thrower. I have two of these and this one has hydraulic lift. Makes lifting the thrower much easier

Ahhhhh Memories!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for posting Jeff!

my first tractor was a Cub 124 with a blower.. I love the old cub cadets.

For about 10 years, I used a Simplicity 6216..until the wiring harness started on fire. (only pic I have of it)
Image

Then used a Cub 2186 up until we moved here.
Image

Now, with almost 1000 feet of hilly driveway, I sold the 2186 and have been using this all winter.
Image

But its been a cold/snowy winter....... so I whussed out and bought something with a heater :lol:
Image


sucks plowing with a suburban though..zero rear-visiblility. I'm going to steal the plow/mount off of it and put it on a pickup. Almost bought a beautiful '79 Chevy c10 Bonanza shortbox a few days ago, but the flake (craigslist Tennessee) wouldn't set up a time to show it. :roll: :roll:

Yes it is!!! After spending 2 hours to get home from work (again) because of weather, I'm fricken ready to snap! :banghead

I use the Armstrong snow thrower... Dependable but does allot of grumbling.

spent 3 hours plowing out from Thursdays' storm. I got the truck stuck a couple of times :thumbdown: ...freaking rained before it turned to snow so everything has a nice layer of ice underneath. Some spots the tires would spin on flat ground and dig instant holes :banghead We only got 9 inches, but it was wet and heavy crap... Not fun.

the kid is loving the piles though...

I get a kick out of how the Global Warming Clan claim it's getting warmer every year. Last October they predicted
December thru February was going to be warmer and drier than normal. :wtf:
