The reason I bought a Cub last week

A picture says more than thousands og words.
It is me, riding my dad's tractor in mid 1960's.

That's a great reason for buying one. I'm assuming the one you bought isn't the one in the picture. Now that would be cool.

My first ride on my dad's cub was in 1960, I'm still riding it! You are going to have great memories with your new tractor. I always think of my dad when I'm on it.

That's as good a reason any. Congratulation on the purchase.

If you give the kids and grandkids a ride and let them steer, the tractor may be in your family's possession for generations.
I have an excuse. CRS.

Yes - that would have been cool - unfortunately it isn't.
Later my dad changed it at a dealer to a more modern (hydr. lift etc.) and more powerful.
