The real way to move snow

I tried this post earlier, but deleted it when the pictures didn't show up.

This is how you move large amounts of snow. Send 185hp through a blower while seated in a nice heated cab listening to the radio.

Now that's a cool snowblower.

Zane was bragging earlier this winter that he had a badass snowblower, I'd like to see if he'llpost pics of it and we can compare.

Kind of a wussy looking blower if you ask me!!! Try a Black Max behind a 8410 JD and front wheel assist!!! Cover that puny thing up in about 20 sec.

I must confess, this blower is only rated for 65hp. :0 Funny how one can snap shearpins with ease if you aren't careful. Only reason we have this tractor on it is that cab feels REAL nice instead of snow blowing down your neck.

If I had to blow snow in reverse as well as I used to back my boat, my mailbox would be toast.

Ya know, last year I sent our mailbox across the road. Snowplow knocked it off the post and it was partially buried. I watched it get sucked in and then shoot out the back, luckily it didn't go up the chute, also quite lucky no cars were going past cause it went out like a rocket.

Weird toys? I think they are awesome. Only problem is they cost lots and lots of money.

The driveway is pretty long, and with fences along both sides it'll drift solid with only a 2" snow if there is any wind to speak of. In the picture below you can see the upper half of our home driveway.
