Husqvarna Track Drive Snowblower--How Good?

I've been planning to buy a Honda snowblower this fall from my local dealer. Had my eyes on the 928TA model which I've used in the past and have found quite good.
He said he's going to start carrying Husqvarna too, noting that its 1830EXLT model has track drive, hydrostatic transmission, and an 18 lb-ft motor (Snow King), and is a lot cheaper than the Honda.
He also noted that Honda has upgraded the motor for its 30-inch blower to its GX 390, but tells me this one is much harder to handle than the 928.
Anyone familiar with this Husky or the upgraded Honda?
I need to be able to reliably blow out a steep, 100-foot drive. Where I live, we measure our wet, heavy snow ("Sierra Cement") by the foot, not the inch.
