I think he will get over the hat, to be honest i'm not really sure why he'd be looking up there anyway.

I would say something about having a hat on but that's a whole different story.

It was about the Ride King!

They are made here is Missouri and have been since 1945. Here is a little about them.

Our Products
Even before electricity came to rural Missouri, Max Swisher was busy at work, producing "handmade" lawn mowers from inside his mother's chicken coop.

The truth is, Max never cared for mowing grass. What he did enjoy was using his creativity to invent easier ways to do things!

Max cleverly installed a gearbox on the family lawn mower creating a self-propelled mower. He then went about trying one end of a long rope to his new self-propelled mower, and the other end to a tree growing in the center of the yard that needed mowing.

Eureka! Max's new mower circled the tree, shortening the rope with each pass and guiding the mower in perfectly concentric circles.

Meanwhile, Max enjoyed his afternoon relaxing under a nearby shade tree while his invention did all the work!

Max had designed the first self-propelled rotary lawn mower. Neighbors noticed his new invention and began asking him to make more self-propelled mowers. That was the humble beginning of the Swisher brand that has been in business since 1945!

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
