Our first snow turned out to be memorable,not only in being a little early but also a large amount( 24+ inches) in a few hours.
My son and I plow about a dozen customers and it was coming down so fast that our plow truck was struggling to keep up.
The DK40 came to the rescue and gave our truck a much needed rest.
Here's a pic taken in my driveway....got to go now it's starting to snow again.........Mike

you should have bought a DK50 with a cab it would keep you a little warmer

Nah,I like the cool crisp air and a full field of vision,not to mention the wood stove and beer waiting which seems all the better when I'm done........Mike

That thing sure looks clean for doing a bunch of plowing! /w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif

Please tell me that the pic was taken before you went out playing in the snow. Otherwise you're either the neatest plower in the world, or you actually washed it after getting done.

It IS a great looking machine! /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif I agree with you Mike. I like being outside in the cold too. It makes you really appreciate coming in to a warm fire, hot coffee (or beverage of your choice!), and a nice warm comforter. /w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif

I knew someone would catch me,actually I thawed the tractor in my garage after plowing.The picture was taken on route back to the barn where the tractor is kept.
By the way it was 9 degrees that day and she fired right up and ran perfect all day........Mike
