Very cool and the thing is they are single stage augers!

It's not so much the type (single or two stage) it's the auger size and speed (larger diameter = greater tip speed for a given RPM), how much power is behind it, and how well the design is implemented.

This is what I replaced my 10 HP 28" track drive two stage with:

(sorry for the bad pic, it's dark in the back corner of the garage)

Hydraulic drive & lift, 21 HP, 900 RPM, 48" auger -- makes snow go away fast. Case/Ingersoll has been making this basically unchanged since the late 60's or early 70's. Mine is a 1983 and you can buy practically the same one new today.

Cool remote control but if anything went wrong that auger better have a kill switch on it.

"If you have more miles on your snow blower than your car, you live in New England." "If you can drive 75 mph through 2 feet of snow during a raging blizzard without flinching, you live in New England."
