Battery
Any suggestions on which brand of battery lasts longest?
I've got Everstart batteries, sold by Wal-Mart and made by Johnson Controls, in most of my Cub's. But in the past year the warranty decreased from 12 months to 3 months, and Cold Cranking Amp rating decreased from 275 to 230. So obviously the quality has decreased, which is confirmed by the fact the Everstart I bought in August 2012 won't start my 682 without jumping, yet the 2009 era Everstart in my 782 works fine. Seems the Everstart is meant to be a one-season disposable battery. Last month I put a Sears DieHard Gold (340 CCA), which is also made by Johnson Controls, in my 1450 and so far it works great. The downside is the Sears battery costs $55 vs $30 Wal-Mart.

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.
