All the side roads around me get cleared by the farmers before the state gets to them.

you guys are lucky. my mf1250 sits in the garage unused. i live in maine, we have had no snow in feb. i think i might have to move south. do you have alot of snowmobile trails down there?

whats a snowmobile? My brother in law in NH said we have too much snow for them...

And too much for the RTV!

I guess to add some clarify to the question I will add this. What type of machine, within reason, by that I mean I know one of those large articulating 8 wheeled tractors would have no issue with this but it won't fit down 99.9% of our driveways, so what machine with that in mind would just push or pull through this?

With the kind of snow we had, there isn't a machine that could push that snow and go and fit most drives.
Even the big rigs (like front end loaders and graders) would run out of traction at some point.
A larger utility tractor (something in the Deere 5400 or 6400 range) with chains could probably push through a quarter mile or thereabouts...but those machines arent the CUT most of us buy (or could afford).
So, your question is rather ridiculous...

Now, if you need a machine to get through this type of snow with one or two passes, go for a tractor and snowblower.
