Your ass is grass Bernie. Kid you the hell not, there is snow in the forecast here for Sat. night and Sunday and back down to 28 degrees. Today was almost 70, tommorow going to be even warmer yet, then a cold front drops down Sar. morning.

Send some this way, I want to test my toy. I've already had three neighbors ask if they could borrow it next big snow we get.

That is amazing. Is it bad that I want to run over random stuff with that?

Well, only a little bad. :)

I have to confess, when my neighbor's three Yorkies woke me up, barking their fool heads off, at 7:30 this morning (my last day off before starting a tile job out of town) I did have the thought cross my mind that if the snowblower could toss snow 35', how far could it toss a Yorkie? And I LIKE animals. :)

I had a kickass track drive snowblower...it sealed the deal when I sold my house in Alaska for the asking price last year :thumbs:

Congrats on the unit!

Considering what it cost me ($650 w/shipping), and the fact that Virginia is not typically known for monster snowfalls, I think it should be the only one I ever buy.

(Gotta remember to stock up on some shear pins though)

In 5 years of 6 month long winters while I had it, I never once sheared a pin.

Damn, I moved a lot of snow, too!

Bet you had a couple spares though, didn't you? See, that prevents shear pins from shearing. A shear pin will only shear when there's at least 10 miles between it and any possible replacement. (Lowered to 5 miles on water)

:D
