Hey all. I'm possibly in the market this Spring for a new riding lawn mower. I am strongly considering the Cub Cadet Xt2 series of mowers. I have a dealer right down the street that does a good job of servicing my older Cub Cadet mower. So I like having a dealer so close in case I had any issues.
One of the defining upgrades is a fabricated deck vs. the stamped deck. The increase in cost for the fabricated deck is about $500 dollars. My question is, do you think there is enough of a strength/ durability difference to warrant the upgraded price?
I mow around a quarter of an acre in a residential neighborhood on reasonably flat terrain.
Also open to comments from anyone who has had experience with this line of mowers. They were a new line for Cub Cadet in, I believe, 2015.
Thanks!
