You guys wouldn't believe the snow piles I have piled up at my place. It's the first year since I bought my old POS plow truck that I've been able to use it more than once per winter. I can't believe they pile snow as high as they do!
North, South and East of the start of the driveway (closest to house) I have snow piles 6-10 feet high and on the north side, 50 yards wide. Much of this is drifted snow due to west winds.
I would say this is ridiculous but it's actually a pretty "normal" MN winter. We've been lucky the last two since I acquired the plow truck.
Prior to that I used a 2186 Cub Cadet with chains, weight box and a 42" blower on the front. The last nasty winter was 2013 I believe and I had enough of that method. Cold, stuck, frozen beer...uhhhh shutter....
lol
Plow truck is a good fit for me too.
I started with that old yellow pickup I got from Dusty, probably around 2004? That's when I stopped moving snow with an antique tractor.
I've had a few other plow trucks since, you would really like a V plow with the hand control that you can hold in your hand as you shift. V plows are awesome.
I have a buddy that has a setup like that. Once time we were on a weekend visit with them and we left the wives inside and went out and played with the plow truck. Just because. lol
