I'm thinking it might be time for a new snow blower. I've currently got a fine, well-maintained, 28" two stage Craftsman from what I'd call the "homeowner" line. Nothing heavy duty or even remotely "pro" about it, but it does the job.
I have a 450 foot driveway and good-sized apron to do on my own, then another 550 foot shared road that several of us cooperate on with our various blowers. The apron is my machine's weak point. It does darn well at blowing snow, but not so well at re-blowing snow.
Who's had what experience with what heavy duty units? Locally I can get Cub Cadet, Craftsman (but sears is swirling the drain), and Honda.
Of course, whatever unit I buy will be equipped with dedicated, studded winter tires. No all seasons!
And hey, no fair just typing Honda and closing the thread!
