For my 1000'+ driveway my #1 tool is a 5' Woods boxblade with gauge wheels (for leveling and shaping). #2 tool is a 6' KK landscape rake for for touchups after heavy rains and to blend in the leaves and fir needles. Last on my list (tool #3) is a 5' woods Cat0 RearBlade that has one use: Clearing snow.

I'm not sure about how much snow you get, but a RB would be better for snow, and certainly better than a FEL for the driveway. You can even add a gauge wheel (or wheels) for a better grading effect.
