Same thing here in northern N.H. Last few winters have been kind of wimpy compared to even 10 years ago, both in snowfall and temperatures. I won't complain about not getting above zero for a couple weeks at a time, but I do like snow. When my current snowmobile dies I don't plan to replace it...way too much money for something I can only use a couple months a year.
if you don't need to go far and fast, a tracked atv might have more use for you. Not cheaper than a sled but are not reliant on snow depth.

Around here if you want descent sledding it's a 4 hour trip to the mountains. Then at the end of the day it's 4 hours back.

If this summers record rainfall is an indicator, we could be in for a good walloping of white stuff. Much welcomed in the Northeast.

Use in the north central Ontario we had a very dry summer, even now it is still very dry for the time, we could use a lot more rain.

They analyze the last 100 years of weather patterns and apparently they is no correlation between summer weather to winter prediction. It is true that meteorologist don't like these kinda prediction they can't predict the next 14 days imagine how embarrassing it would be if the Almanac farmers would have it right all the time.

I need to get one of these to mount my SSQA snowplow to my Euro QA tractor. $1,000 I didnt want to spend.

Man I want a plow truck!

For me the tractor is much more efficient than a plow truck. My F250 plow truck has been relegated to backup duty for the last 10 years, and it very rarely gets used.
My plow route is very tight at less than a mile radius, so there's not much need for the truck.

I have the same scenario, but I still like the comfortable ride and faster speed of the plow truck. I can also use it for pulling trailer of mowers for mowing duty in the summer.

Found this for pretty cheap, but I just don’t have the $ right now. Too many “irons in the fire”.

Not necessarily, I don't hate the crap but I sure don't look forward to it.
It's just a fact that it happens and has to be taken care of.

Snow on the ground and deep cold a few weeks is less bugs in the warmer weather.
This was a bad year for bugs, swarms of everything.
