Ha! :) That video is great.

So mvedepo, were you thinking of buying this?

aa335 pointed out the peculiar auger size, on average most newer snow blower intakes are 21" and the augers look to be about half the size, so I'm guessing they're 11" augers with a 12" impeller?  Checked out their site and it's kind of annoying when you go to spec's and all you get is a bullet or "Yes" for some of the items that should show an actual measurement.  Anyhow, looks like an okay machine...

I bought a 14527SB-LS, 2009 model.  I have not used it yet, but it's a very nice machine.

I don't think you would be disappointed with it.
