Greetings All:

After freezing my castanets off while walking behind my Honda snowblower for twenty years, I decided it was time to buy a new snow removal toy. I decided to go for maneuverability and warmth and ended up buying a new Bobcat S70 with a 48" blower and heated cab. The heated cab can get pretty warm - warm enough to just wear a t-shirt. :cool2: I went with turf tires because they get better traction in the snow......need to get a set of chains though - ice under the snow is the nemesis of this little beast.

Attached is photo of "the driveway from he**" as the neighbors call it. I park it in my heated shop during the winter, open the garage door, and drive out blowing away.

Summer time rolls around and the blower comes off and the bucket goes on. Life is good - I've got a total of 17 hours on this baby! BTW - it has a sun roof - heck, my truck doesn't even have one!!

Merry Christmas to All:

TK

No suggestions here, as I've never had snow in my pajamas.

Beautiful picture of your home. Do you park the skid steer indoors?

Well that's one way to stay warm. :thumbsup:

Yes I park it indoors - I have a heated 18 x 24 heated workshop. All my machinery is on wheels so I can move things around, make room for the Bobcat near the garage door, and stay operational at the same time.

Bruce: Maybe I should've changed the title to "Snow Removal WHILE in my Pajamas." :D

I'm just kinda glad it wasn't "Pajama Removal in the Snow" :=)

Yeh, so you walk down to the barn in your PJs... sorry we are not buying that unless we see you in your Whinney the Pooh PJs with footies. Sorry man but you chose the name of the thread not me!

Pic up my PJ wearing Bobcat friend! :thumbsup:

Nice setup BTW! but you still don't get off for your thread name!

Man - this is a rough crew. I wore out my Winnie the Pooh jammies - now it's a Walmart flannel bottom with an ***** bin Laden bullseye T-shirt. :laughing:
