Had my Fisher push plates and wiring installed yesterday. I'll dig my plow out this weekend.

 

LALALALALA I can't hear you.

I might get my old POS Meyers operational this fall, but more likely I'll just use a tractor again. Snow is gonna be coming soon.

 

I like using my old 3.5 ton skidsteer with an 8 foot hydro turn blade. A good snowstorm is a fun thing to tackle. But with the democrats running everything there is less and less snow due to their GW. I am hoping we can turn this around with a few more elephants in the room.....

 

I like calling one of my brothers drivers & watching them plow while I stand at the window drinking coffee.

 

I can see that side of life too but winter is not a bad thing to me. Crisp, clean air and the snow creates a beautiful silence across the land. I love it as much as the 90+ days of summer. It is all grand.

 

If you don't mind my asking, what was the cost of the parts and install of the new push plates plus wiring changeover?
I'm looking at either buying a new plow or doing the changeover on the old one which is only two years old. The dealer said he would give me a deal I couldn't refuse if I left that one on my old truck when I traded it.

 

I'm doing the same.... transferring my 5 yr old meyer over. The wiring harness and truck side mount cost me $1500. A whole new Western plow is about $6K.

 

We've had snow for almost a week. I'm selling plows like crazy but still have not even seen a 2017 up here in AK yet. I have the mounts ready for them but no trucks to mount them on.

 

wrong thread

 

Love my new Fisher, I couldn't see swapping a 9 year old plow to my new truck. Sold the plow and controls on Craigslist for 2500.00 and put that toward the new set up. So much faster than the 08 set up.

 

Mine is 9 years old too but it's stainless, always lives indoors, and is only used for my drive and family. Looks like new so it's getting swapped. Fisher 8.5 XtremeV SS. I'd love a V2 but there's just nothing wrong with mine darn it...

That said, does anyone have pics of their air dam after notching after installation? I was reading on a plow forum I'm on that the 17's look much worse with their air dams notched than previous generations but no one posted a pic...

 

Mine was stainless also but kept outside. My S550 Mustang takes up the Garage! The Air dam looks awful once its notched... I'm taking it off completely in the spring.

 

 

See what I mean...awful

 

Wow, my guy always just notches two small areas on each side just wide enough for each side of the mount to go through. Your guy went nuts on that! As to the garage, I have a 5 car so plenty of room for the toys and the plow lol. I put it right inside the middle door in front of our CanAm Spyders in the winter for nice clean mounting. Then in the summer, I reverse it with it behind the Spyders so they can just ride out the door. Anyways, this is how my guy always trims my dams.
