Default I bought a 3rd Cub...

I bought a third cub for only 30 bucks at an antique store. Problem is I can't get the seat up to check the battery or get the dipstick out.

Well, at least you don't have to worry about the tires going flat!
But you may have issues in snow more than a couple of flakes deep!!

Nice score, you got a good deal on it! I got the same one at a tractor show a few months ago, and I paid quite a bit more than you did. I have a cyclops one too that someone gave me. I see some of them going for crazy prices on EBay, especially if they are in the original box. Some of them cost as much, or more than you can buy a real Cub Cadet for.

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.
