The Cub Cadet XT1 LT42 is a 42-inch hydrostatic lawn tractor powered by Cub Cadet's own 547cc IntelliPower engine. Built for homeowners with up to about 1.5 acres of mostly flat to gently rolling lawn.
The IntelliPower engine holds steady power in thick, wet, or heavy grass where ordinary single-cylinder tractors bog down. Add a smooth pedal-controlled hydrostatic drive and one of the tightest turning radii in its class, and the LT42 mows around trees and beds with far less backing up.
