Outdoor Power Equipment (Lawn Mowers, Snow Blowers, Chain Saws and more) Discussions

The in-laws are vacationing so I used their rubber trac driven Honda snowblower today  to clear their property.  I was impressed by the machine's abilities but found it difficult to turn the machine.  Is that the "nature of the beast " when it comes to the rubber trac drive types?   My Ariens is close to retirement and I am trying to evaluate replacement machines.   Other than the steering issue I loved the machine.  Was I doing something wrong or is this the way the machine steers?
