MOWERS AND MORE | Lawn & Garden Tractors Cub Cadet Series 2000 garden tractor To celebrate its 50-year anniversary, Cub Cadet introduced the all-new Series 2000 with a cast-iron transmission and front axle, Kohler engines with direct shaft-drive system, and Electronic Power Steering (EPS) on select models. Whether it’s mowing, landscaping, tilling, hauling, or moving snow, the Series 2000 takes on every task with comfort and ease, thanks to its direct shaft-drive system.
