I finally replaced my crapbox John Deere rider (one of the RX series rear-engine jobs they built for the likes of Lowe's and Home Depot -- JUNK) with an old Cub Cadet 1450. That is one sweet tractor. Nice mower deck too...

Anyway, sometimes I'll just get it out and ride around the yard beacuse it's so damned cool. Anyone else do this? I'd like to restore it with paint, decals, and all that jazz, but I still use it to mow... kinda impractical. I have to stop while I'm out in the garage getting oil, gas for the trimmer, tools, etc... and just admire it for a moment.
