Cub Cadet 5254 Review
MTD's Big Mistake
Posted by Florance C.McCarthy on 03/01/2012
MTD after taking over Cub Cadet, built the 5000 CUT line and did a very poor job. Hydraulic pumps are under sized, PTO is weak and so is the transmission. My dashboard caught fire but, that was okay it was in my dealers shop at the time.
Yanmar makes that line now I hear it is a better machine.
