Sad story of Cub Cadet. At 40 hours - already several issues have come up.

This is my second Cub Cadet 42 inch ride on and with it, the sad story of Cub Cadet continues. With 40 hours on the clock - this Cub Cadet already had:
loose belt pulley, cracked belt pulley covers and twice failed engine speed regulator. What's next???

stamped mower deck, very cheap and many problems. spend a little more and buy a model with the fabricated deck. thicker guage metal. also many issues with the "intellipower" system.

Built cheap and nasty... like most new stuff, unfortunately...
