NYYF, that cab is too sweet to be true. But every time I see a rear mounted blower here I think,"that's gotta be the biggest pain in the butt, snowblowing backwards". I mean, visibility has got to be tough. I'd be smacking trees and the wife's car...

Yes I had the rear blower front FEL set up and went for the $$$$$$$$ front blower. BUT a cab with a blower front or rear, makes moving snow a lot drier and warmer and dare I say,,, fun.

Got a BX 2200 with a cab and a power angle plow. Haven't found a storm yet that it won't push. I have a very steep hot top driveway and the plow will take it to bare tar quickly. Even after it freezes and we get another storm it will push back the frozen drifts with no problem. Think I'd like a snowblower though, if I can find one right. The cab makes all the difference when a driving snow is switching to freezing rain and the wife will be home from work and I have to get the 600 ft drive cleared.

What is the biggest snowstorm anybody tried to move with only a front loader and back blade on their BX? In other words did you tackle 6",8", 10", etc, etc at one time. Pic's welcome.

I think it was the winter of 2009-2010 that we had about 12 inches that drifted in front of peoples' garage doors such that they couldn't get out. My new BX with FEL and RB was envied as I went up and down the road lifting the snow out of the way and piling it up along the sides. It hasn't snowed much since.

I went from a BX to a cabbed B3030 because of snow and freezing rain. You will too when you are an old man.

Just plowed 7" with my BX22. Have a slightly modified truck plow mounted to the bucket mounts. Yes the bucket is on a pallet for the winter but I do have wheel weights and chains for the rear tires, also leave the backhoe on for more drive tire weight. Today after over 940 hours the steering went out.

Just moved 17 " today. When I got it out of shed and come across yard I had my doubts but they quickly vanished after I got a pattern going:cool2:
