Looking to repalce my 14 yr old MTD riding mower this spring. I know which Cub Cadet model I want, so it is just a matter of who will give me the best deal. Been told the ones Home Depot sells are not made as well as the ones the dealer sells. I have a hard time believing that Cub would go to the expense to make two models with the exact model number and make one cheaper so HD would sell them. Is there a differece between what I would buy at a Cub dealer and the one HD sells a long as they are the exact same model? I haven't priced one at the dealer yet but HD will give me a 10% discount for being X-military. Found one Cub dealer on the internet who sells the same mower for $300 less then HD and ships it free and I would not pay sales tax which would save me another $100. I find it had to understand how they can ship a 530 pound mower for free and still be $300 less then the list price at HD.

My very old snowblower will start every time, but shuts off at once unless I press the primer button. I'm not real handy so how do I check for a blocked fuel line, if that's the problem. I checked the vent hole in the cap, and it's open?
