Need advice buying snowblower
Original Message   Feb 14, 2008 1:14 am
I have a long (1000'), steep, winding driveway that I need to plow. We get about 4-6' of snow a year. Doesn't sound like a lot but when it is deep and slushy, it is very scary going down the drive even with 4wd. We hire a guy with truck and snowplow but he often does a horrible job when the snow is deep and slushy and he charges $50. each time. We have considered a plow for our own 3/4 ton truck, 800cc ATV or snowblower for ATV or stand alone snowblower and think the last would be best but am a novice to this snow removal job. Any suggestions?

my neibour has a blower att. for his four wheeler and it works awsome..  Whith the 4 wheeler you will get lots of traction and the blowwers are real wide so lest passes + less time


The drawback with these units are twofold.  They're expensive and awkward in tight spaces due to the size of the ATV and the attachment.
