That is more reasonable. I was looking at tractordata.com.

So, that said....
The 1864 by all rights should weigh in far less. It has plastic hoods and a CH motor weighs a LOT less than the KT's or Magnums. Aluminum rear makes a difference too, although there is no listed weight difference between an early 782 and a late. Even the 1711 is listed at the same weight.

Travis nailed it. The 782 listed weight (855#) was with a 175# operator and full of fuel. The 1864 was listed at 880# with a 175# operator, full fuel (remember it also holds more fuel than a 782 by one gallon) and a 54" deck. So really...... 1864 weighs less. Quite a bit less. Like about 200# less.

I also want to note: The 1864 and 782 frames are identical. The difference in length is in the front axle. It has a more swept forward design. Always assumed that was for the tighter steering radius and also to make getting the 54" deck easier to remove/install.
Wow, great bit of info well said there. I didn't know the listed weight for an 1864 was with a 54" deck. Kinda weird they listed it with a 175lb operator and deck but it is what it is. Also nice to know when adding up all the weights on my 1864 that driver weight is included but I have to subtract deck weight :-/

Sorry guys, I goofed. The 1864 weight isn't with an operator. All other weights in the book are with an operator, I didn't read the rest of the sentence. So, the 1864 weighs 880# with a 54" deck. No operator. I don't know about fuel. It isn't specified one way or another. Most all equipment weights are given as "operating weight" which means full of fuel/fluids. Again, I apologize for incorrect info.

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.
