Bought an Ariens 8526 and am now accepting that I made a bad decision. Although it does a fantastic job blowing snow, it's just to hard for me to maneuver. That model has the pin wheel drive, not the traditional differential. It replaced a real old 7HP with a real differential that was always easy to turn. Need to sell the 8526 and replace it with one that's easy to handle. (want a good deal on an 8526?)
I have an area about 25X40 to clear, along with a 30 foot driveway with a slight incline, and 80 feet of sidewalk.
What would you recommend? Need something absolutly reliable, that won't break the piggybank and is easy to work with.
