Sweet! That blower is going to be awesome next year when we get even more snow than this year! :)

You're going to LOVE that blower John. My uncle has had one for better than a decade now that looks like that on the front of a skid steer. It is unreal how that thing throws the snow. You could drive a tractor trailer past it and the snow would go clear over without even touching it. He goes down his driveway and back and finished. Prior to that he would be plowing half the yard in the fall in order to make sure the banks were back far enough to last until spring.

Thanks Scott, that is exactly what I am hoping for. 15-20 minutes or so clearing the driveway and parking area and then done! No more 90-120 minute snow clearing jobs! I guess I would not mind having a few a season that would take the tractor and blower 90-120 minutes! :D

Did it arrive yet? Did you put the last 1.5 hours on the other one? If not I am sure I could burn those up :)

It did arrive and we swapped out the load for the blower. A bit of a learning curve, but I can see it taking less than 5-10 minutes once I get some more practice. The blower is unbelievable! It tossed the slush I was scraping off the drive way 50+ feet.

I cannot even imagine what it will do with powder snow. It also ate right through the 8"+ mat of snow I had at the end of the driveway where the road is.

The heater cranks. I had to turn it way down just to not overheat with only a t shirt and vest on. It will keep me plenty toasty in the dead of winter.

Man-o-man, how wonderful it would have been this past winter and how wonderful it will be for many, many winters to come!

You are to right Mark. Since it can throw the snow so far, it will be a very easy job to clear the parking area. Just take a bunch of passes and blow it all into the woods. No monkeying around with where I have to toss it. The driveway will take 3 passes and be done.

Plus, Gracie has found a perfect place to stand while we are out there. Being in the cab, she is safe from falling off.

Ok John are the Friday and Saturday graphics a April fools joke? If not it's all your fault, just couldn't wait till next season to break in the New tractor. :)
