This machine will 2200 lb of snow per minute.My combined driveway is over 400' and has 2000sq. ft parking area. Now if I can find away to get it on my roof to get of 2' of snow then that would be the bomb. My roof is 115' X 36'. I do hate this winter!!

thats unreasonable... i like griping and being grumpy
it makes winter Bearable
ain't no fun catchin colds
getting frostbit fingers
frozen pant legs that are stiff
nothing growing
having a sore back from shoveling
ice damming SUCKS

i do however like the fact there's not a single flying insect around
the AIR is cool to breathe deeply without inhaling a Knat
you can go tracking in the snow,, (when it's not 36 inches deep)
you get to PLAY with snow blowers and feel like a hero
you can throw snow balls to your dog to catch
Christmas lights reflect off the snow
sunshine reflects off the snow
everything gets deep watered (slowly) and all weeds get snuffed.
since it had to snow ..........it insulates your house

BassDawg 01-30-2011 07:48 AM

AYYYYY MEN!! to the 2nd half of your ditty~~~

i "get it" about the grumphus amungus,

just NOT my style, me bruddah,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

LONG LIVE WINTER and February is yet to come!!!

When they let you " Believe " the pants are only worn by the man of the house, the battle is already lost. ( subliminal Jedi that they are )
They always have the keys to the prize my malapropic comrade.

btw Still waiting for you to come over and shovel my driveway.
Hate seeing all that white fun melting away.
All the kids around here are so fat and out of shape they would be
the ones having the heart attack, not me.

Don't get me started on the "did you change the oil in your truck?"

I know he's right, but damn! the delivery.......


LOL, it only gets worse. :D I can hear my Dads words whenever i'm
doing any job. :hihi: "Do it once and do it right." Painting- "unfinished

I'll say this, I was 14 years old back in the winter of 1978 and these snow piles we have now are the closest of any winter I can remember since then, and I've been plowing for over 25 years.

"This is my kind of party" :uhuh:

Be careful dood. 18" comin. I'm staying home tomorrow to work. #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&s here cleared everyone out at the end with a backhoe. Left my pile of #^&#^&#^&#^& everywhere. I got my trailer half out now.

WE'RE GONNA GET HAMMERED. Call the national guard.

I'm puttin the snowblower on the back of the van. I can make more money doing driveways than plugs :hee:

redlite 02-01-2011 08:45 AM

Well, thankfully I may be saved.
After a week of calling and driving to every snowblower dealer for either a new machine or even engine, my savior, ie little brother, called me with some good news yesterday evening. A used matching engine donor was located. After a successful 2 hour surgey transplant last nite, it looks like I am back in business.
Thank God cause its snown to beat the band.
I owe him 2 cases of beer at least........
Bring it on........for now....................
