Thanks for the info Frank
I'll stick with mine for the moment, I can't beat the money I have into mine (free + a belt and carb kit, so ~$25 total). But I'll see how mine does if we ever get any deeper snow. If it's underpowered (rather likely), I'll probably try to boratify it, and/or keep an eye out for something inexpensive and more powerful.
Plus I think I'd need to be able to justify shopping for a different machine
I have my new-to-me 2-stage, my old 2-stage (waiting for some snow & demand on CL before listing it), and my new-to-me SS. If I announced I was shopping for *another* one already, with no real runtime on the "new" ones, I might have some 'splaining to do
