    There is no 'suspension' on a riding mower. If yours is riding rough there are three items to check - #1, check the tire pressure. 10 psi rear, 15 psi front. Many times the tires are over-inflated during assembly so they aren't flat by the time they're in the store. #2, while seated have someone look to see if the seat springs are bottomed out or near bottomed. If they are you can try inserting some medium to high density foam in the springs, finding a couple heavier springs/adding a third spring or visiting Jenny Craig a few times. ;-) #3, slow down, too many peeps try mowing way too fast. It's hard on the grass, the tractor and your butt/back. It also makes your beer foam up - plenty of personal experience with that issue...

    After suffering from a belt throwing, belt eating monster Cub Cadet LT1045 for the past several years, I couldn't look myself in the eye, if I ever bought another CUB CADET. I wish I had the hours of sleepless nights wondering what I could do to fix it or all the scraped knuckles I got putting belts on, modifying the pulleys, adding springs, retightening vibrating idler arms on this POS I'm still trying to fix. God Bless Kohler for replacing the motor with the cracked block after 5 years at no cost or you'd be reading about a garage fire. Unless they're giving them away, it'll be Deere or Husky in the future.

    When you purchase something and it has that many advantages and you could only find one negative you purchased a really good machine I guess you could really if you wanted to change the seat and get something softer but that's not a deal-breaker that seems to be a really amazing machine

    Great Video Clint, I don't own a riding mower and my yard is small enough I probably never will. I did just pick up the Kobalt 40v mower for $199 plus 10% veterans discount and I got the Kobalt 24v trimmer and blower combo kit for $129 on sale saved $250 total. All 3 worked great and easy set up. First impression AWESOME !!!! Looking forward to more Kobalt power tools in the future perfect for a DIYer like me.

    I looked at the CC with the electronic throttle module a year ago. I wondered what the price was to replace that module just out of curiosity. No listing anywhere but I think it might be expensive. Might be hard to find at all, given it's part of a no name Chinese engine. I ended up buying the USA made Kohler engine with the mechanical cable and choke. No regrets

    Nice video! I have the 2018 model and love it. I have 2 1/2 yards to mow and no issues except I wish the XT1 came with armrests on the seat to hold me in when the tractor is leaning, or at least a seat belt. I got mine mainly to plow snow, my back doesn't like the walk behind snow thrower when it runs up on a snow bank. the 46" plow does a great job but if we get more than a 12" snow fall I'll revert to the walk behind thrower. Tire chains are a must!

    I bought my club cadet riding lawnmower 3 of July 2019 after having a yard machine which I bought in 2005, at that time that was a good lawnmower to the end it was a good. When the time for a new the Club cadet that, I looked at was the one I picked.I looked at the Toro riding mowers, that is the one that I when with.
    What I like about my Club Cadet T2 is the turning racial, the speed, deck and cutting of the grass is all around top notch.
    I’m so pleased with club cadet I went out this winter and bought me a brand new club cadet snow thrower.

    2) The newer cub cadet mower's have the TL200 transmission's which are bad and they had something else before. Thoughts?
    3) Everything is great till your cub cadet tractor has ANY issues. Cub Cadet has the WORST warranty customer service on the planet. You can check their records. They never pick up calls on purpose. They will do NOTHING for you and brush you off one way or another despite still being on their full warranty. Any thoughts on this?

    From what I am seeing they are just using a electronic tach signal to I imagine control a electric throttle actuator?, thus replacing the mechanical type governor. not sure but that looks suspiciously like a chinese clone engine, not necessarily a bad thing, but my very similar "both built by MTD" craftsman has a kohler. they both are fine machines, but Which engine will last longer? Who knows. I also like that my craftsman has the turn tight feature. the cubby does have a fancier looking seat

You may have inadvertently inserted your narration from one part of the video on top of the original sound in the segment of the video. You might look at the original uploaded file to see if the error is there or it could be in UA-cam's end.

    I would NOT buy these mowers, they use chinese engine that is poor quality. I you have to repair carb forget it, u have to buy new. The intelli module fails. And if the air filter get little dirty the module cant since the right air/fuel mixture. And they have a bad design where grass builds up in the exhaust guard and catches fire. Cub cadets are an MTD mower. Older IH cub cadets were some of the best little tractors. Not anymore!!!
