Hi folks,

I have run across a Cub Cadet 1541. I'm not that knowledgeable about older Cubs. As near as I can tell, this is a '90 or' 91? It has a 15 hp Kohler. I have no idea the transmission or if it is shaft drive, etc. as it is a relatives and she knows nothing about it. It was purchased for her by her late father several years ago.

I'm not sure how many hours are on it, but it's in pretty good shape. I think it might have a 46" deck? She says it runs. Anyway, she's looking to sell and I'm trying to find out more about it and it's value on the used market.

Thanks in advance!

1 of the reason I want this one is I know the History from Purchase(know the Original dealer Rather well). to Present So if My neighbors every change there mind(btw itusually take several year On the Market to sell the House In My Neighborhood) Took the last sellers In our 35 house subdivision about 3years to sell there home) when People see the Property Taxes they run & hide from the sale) $20,000 was my taxes when I moved In taxes dropped to about $18,000 last year. So My neighbors may change there mind on the 1541 (y)
