If the Traveller from TSC at half the price of HyTran has the same specs
They are not. They are close. I have used that TSC stuff, and it's not the same. HyTran is a PATENTED FORMULA and NO-ONE can make it. Viscosity Oil Co is the only company licensed to make the oil for Case-IH.

If your doctor recommends that you get on a blood thinner to reduce chance of a stroke, and suggests Plavix (brand name) at $200 for 30 day supply, or clopidogrel (same thing but generic) at $13 for 30 days, how many people insist on the brand name??
Budwizzer & California Red make excellent blood thinner!

All kidding aside Sam KNOWS THESE HYDRO TRANSMISSIONS! Many of us that have had cubs pass through our hands with little to no maintenance on them is a testament itself to how good that HYTRAN is. There are other pis on this site about the benefits of HYTRAN, good stuff no doubts about it and is all that I will use in my tractors.

I think you hit the nail on the head, that being, for heavy use or if you are one who does not keep up with regular oil and filter changes then HyTran should be the way you go. On the other hand as long as you don't beat the snot out of your equipment and treat it right, other brands can work fine too. But like he says, "your tractor, your money, your choice"!

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.
