OK, I picked up a site unseen Ariens Compact 26 snowblower for a good deal. Now that I see it (and own it) I am not sure I want it. I have about a 300' long driveway and live in the country where I get lots of drifing snow. I am in the market for something bigger. I am thinking 30" wide and I sure do like the idea of handwarmers. I have been looking at several. The Platinum Ariens, John Deere, Troy Bilt 3090 XP. I know John Deere is not making their snow blowers anymore. I heard they are made by Murry?? Anyone know if there is truth to that?
Looking for suggestion on which is the best to buy. I live in NE Wisconsin and we get plenty of snow. I want big, no tracks and something most importantly that is going to last with a little TLC. If I pick a model without hand warmers, can I add them?
Thanks
