I used my new (new to me) 9' 2" Boss V plow last night to clean our little rural neighborhood for the first time. It was great, yes the scoop feature is awesome for moving big piles of snow.
It can be tough stabbing your way through the deep stuff as the V acts like a barbed hook, goes forward well but doesn't always want to pull out nice. I've found that sometimes I have to try backing up while hitting the fold forward switches for both sides of the plow, fold the blades forward to the scoop position for backing up when pounding the V through really tough spots.
I also found that if you feel like you are possibly stuck, again fold those plow sides forward all the way before spinning yourself down, the extra weight/leverage of having the plow in the scoop position really helps anchor some traction on the front tires.
