Briefly, but much rather do the snow blower. Don't want to mess up a fish truck with a plow

I've got an 826 toro that i bought for the company for doing the walk way and hydrogen dock 16 winters ago... I fired it up just before Thanks giving and it came to life with one pull...... It's big enough to hangle a 50' walk way , but small enough to get it in and out of the main building to clear the dock and entrance ways...just run stabilezer in what ever you buy all the time and you will never have an issue with sour fuel...

A good run is better than a bad stand!

smaller trucks

are great to plow with anyways

because they aren't as wide
and when you have your blade at an angle
you can plow between parked cars
without scraping them.... and that's a PLUS
when cleaning out parking lots for some extra cash

the next time i "lift" snow
will be with a KUBOTA tractor bucket
or something similar

Plows cost at least three times as much as a snowblower, and they won't do your walkways or sidewalks. i bought an 8 horse 28 inch Ariens last year. Takes the pain out of snow. Now, bring on the ice!
