Looks good!. With that said I'm not familiar with it. Most up here have plow trucks or skid steers. Me I have a plow truck and a NH tractor with bucket (by the sound of the coming weather I will probable use both of my vechicles soon).
Good luck Tim!-:cert:

I have two snow blowers. One is named Cole the other Collin. I just watch through the window. Problem solved.

My dad had one named Jeff. It was very versatile. It started the car 20 minutes before they left for work, it shoveled snow, it spread salt, and it scraped windows. Operated at zero expense most of the time.

Jeff: I can't shovel the snow off the drive way with my arm in a cast.
Dad: Well, stick the handle in your ass, walk backwards and get the job done.

Because plows don't "launch" the snow. With a snow thrower ( single stage) or snow blower ( two stage) you move the snow away from the driveway instead of piling up a mound.
If you plow and miscalculate the amount of snow, you can't get it off the driveway. :kick:

A blower is a precise machine. You put the snow where you want it, not just push it around.
That machine in the OP is too wide IMO. Not heavy enough for the width. Sometimes you get frozen snow and you need a narrow width and the traction to push the side and bottom blades through it.
The machine I had in upstate NY was maybe 30" wide, 10HP with track drive. That snow was all wind driven, compacted drifts and needed brute force to move it. My '56 International Cub Tractor, 1600# plus four 75# wheel weights, was no match for that. My neighbor, nearly identical driveway, had a 4WD Dodge Power Wagon and I would consistently be done before he was.
Here I get away with a much less capable machine- 20", 5HP, soft rubber tires. But don't let the stuff set up. :nono:

I got older in a center haul colonial on a fairly steep hillside next to Fauchi's farm, NIH in Bethesda Md.......my job was to shovel the driveway, and so it was no sweat EXCEPT when the snow got deeper than a foot....I remember one time it was about 3-4' or so, and the plow coming down the street, me leaning on the shovel out in the apron//roadside edge...and staring at the plow driver.....he stopped and I refused to move, he raised the blade a good bit and plowed the snow straight ahead past me and the driveway.....at least I didn't have to shovel some 10' high piles.....
