Thanks. Ayah, I run down the drive with the FEL a few times, then, once everything is piled up down there, move it across the road to dump it, and then clean up the sides with the RB. I also use the RB to pull snow from in front of the garage doors. For that I usually have the blade facing forward. When I do the drive, I reverse the RB and plow in reverse.
But, I am considering a snowblower for next year. I have no trouble moving snow with the setup I have. In fact, I like doing it. The problem is where to put it. At the bottom of the drive I have to move large amounts of snow, basically everything I pushed down with the FEL. This winter has been an easy one. But, in a heavy snow winter I would have a hard time finding enough places to put all that snow. If I got a rearmount blower, I could blast it all into the trees and be done with it. Why a rearmount? Because I am getting a Terrain Contour Control rig and will be able to hydraulically adjust the angle of the blower to preserve the crown of my hardpack while still getting most of the snow from the tread areas. And, I need the FEL to remove snow from around the house. Anyway, don't know if I will or not, but that's the thought of the moment.
