I've been around Cub Cadets for about 40 years. The second one Dad bought new, a Model 70 in 1965 He still has and hasn't touched the transmission but He's rebuilt/replaced the engine 4-5 times. That's how durable they are. The older Cub Cadets, '85 or older vintage are really tough to beat for the $$$$.

Parts are readily avail. both new/used and service work is easily done because these machines are so simple.
