1) When I took my wife and cub to a relaxed antique tractor show which included crafts and things of interest to her and she got to drive the cub up and down the rows instead of walk, she fell in love with the cub. It suddenly became "hers". 2) I would not recommend a cub with a belly mower for her--at least not initially. They (cubs with belly mower) are not the friendliest, easiest things in the world. Unless you have an overrunning clutch/free-spinning pulley on the mower, there is a good chance she (and maybe even you) will push in the drive clutch and the momentum of the belly mower will push you right into a fence, tree, house, wall, post, etc. (Been there, done that!) Also the cub is a bit high to get under many trees, especially if it has the upright exhaust. One fun thing I did was to take a seat and the spring steel support to which it was attached (from an old dump rake/plow or other implement) and bolt it to the drawbar of the cub. Lots of fun for two to ride/drive! Regards and good luck with your spouse!
