[QUOTE="BrokenBackJack, post: 300843, member: 642"] When on the farm we have had everything at one time or another. Had a 79 Ford Bronco with a Western snow plow on it and it worked great. Always back dragged the early snows and packed it down to form a base so i wasn't pushing our rock/gravel out into the grass. Always pushed in 4 low and used common sense by pushing slow. Never wrecked anything or hurt our transmission. Cleaned out neighbors yards too with it. Down the road i sold the Bronco and kept the snow plow. Had a buddy that made a bracket and we mounted it by quick attach to the front of our Bobcat and the hydraulic angle was still usable and that worked slick too. Also had the Case Backhoe for a loader, the Bobcat loader, Western snowplow, Protech Snowpusher, and the Bobcat snowblower. Each had its purpuse. I used the loader or the snow pusher to create piles far away from the yard to act as a snow fence to try and keep the snow from coming up into the yard. Then towards the end of the season i used the blower and at the end of the season the blower was used to cut channels so the water would run in the spring out through the yard and trees towards the creek. We had a huge yard/farmstead so snow removal took some time plus we opened all of our neighbors yards and some in the 2 towns we were by. One of the main reasons we moved all the snow in our big farm yard was we had between 200-400 deer in our trees in the bad winters that we would have to feed big round alfalfa bales and corn/barley in the bad snow years. My bride was like a kid in a candy store in the springs when she got to go horn picking! Never charged the other people for moving snow as was brought up if you are able to do it and can afford to do it, you done it and didn't expect nothing in return. At times it was fun moving snow and at other times it really sucked as you all know the routine! [/QUOTE]
