Yeah, I didn't even hook it up this year. I wish I had though, the diesel in the truck gelled up and once I finally got it going I plowed the 18" or more of heavy wet snow. The piles all around my driveway are about 10'-12' high. Good for sledding, bad for seeing cars coming. It was cold and early so I didn't feel like pulling off the backhoe and hooking it up. My driveway is very rough with random rocks and stumps sticking up, not very good for snowblowing. Once it's paved, I will probably go back to snowblowing, it is a much cleaner and better way to move snow, just longer. (Power service 911 is awesome!)
