Used PK today to clear the 1/2" or so of snow w/thin layer of ice on top off the drive before it became solid ice: View attachment 592117

Another 3-5" of snow predicted for Tuesday/Wednesday!

Love that Power King! My Dad bought one in the early 70’s, and that was what I cut 2 acres with for years as a kid. They actually have a cult following as a collectible now.

Snowblown looks much neater.

And as someone who has used both methods, I'll bet it took a LOT less time with the blower! ;-)

No comparison between FEL and snowblower.. but I'll put the front 7' blade against a snowblower anytime for time saver, even without throwing in the benefit of the wing plow.. :D :D

I have a plow as well. It all depends on how deep the snow gets. With a plow I'm out there all night plowing with the storm because once it gets so deep I'm not going anywhere with the plow. With the blower I stay in the warm, sleep in and clean everything up once when it's all over. :)

I don't plow often to keep up.. usually just once. Last couple storms were over a 24 hour period and up to 14" of snow total.. plowed when Mrs. needed to get out for her quilting and shopping trips. But maintain 1/4 mile of drive and road so do it in 1/5 of the time a snowblower would take.. and essentially no cleanup of equipment as is necessary for a snowblower..

And I love to plow snow.. ;)

If I got that much snow I would probably have a snow blower too.
I rarely get more then 6" at a time so plowing seems to be easiest for me.
However I do miss my plow truck. Open station tractor isn't near as much fun for an old man that gets COLD easy.
