Hey Tom
Did you break in the 3650?? If so, how did it compare to your other Toros?
Emmo:
I tried using the 3650 but the snow was way too light. I was getting covered in snow because the R tek was just blowing the snow all over the place.
Switched to the CR20 which was much happier and kept the blowing to a minimum.
This weekend if we get the 6-12" I do plan on an informal Snow Commander vs. 3650 comparison test.

Nothing over 2" here yet. Brand new Ariens itchin' to go. The neighbors are looking at me weird- probably because I start up the blower and tool around the driveway on sunny days !

Nothing wrong with taking your Ariens for a walk on a sunny day.
Weird is taking it for a walk in the rain.

so far this season we have had over three feet of snow on my hill here in northern jersey... this however required my piling the piddling dustings we have had in to a pile. the weather folks are toying with us by "forecasting" 6+ inches this weekend, we will see. wd
