I picked up this 782 last year pretty cheap. Dad came up with the idea of using it to tow around our 15 gallon trailer sprayer. I went one further and decided to permanently mount the sprayer to the lawn mower. We go in way too many tight, cramped, and otherwise unfriendly places to bother towing a sprayer. I don't like the factory booms so I picked up what I need last night from TSC to switch it over to 2 or 3 flat fan nozzles, I'll replace the boom itself with angle iron. So far I "trimmed" around the houses and farm with 60 gallons of Roundup. With all the rain we have been getting there are a lot of weeds to deal with this year. I got plenty more to spray still. Working on a engine issue as well. Machine is very stable, if you get crazy/stupid you can make the front end pop a wheelie with a full tank. If I ever find that becomes an issue I'll add weights (or a blade) to the front. FWIW, our land is NOT flat. I crossed a couple ditches yesterday where the front end went to full travel and still lifted a wheel off the ground. No plans on making this "pretty", this is all about working and getting it done. I ain't got time to worry about driving through mudholes or getting scratched by tree limbs.

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.
