I just spent an hour shoveling a path through the snow to get my wagon then to the wood pile. That was fun... but I have fire now at least.

Yeah but it's no good when it's a rainy slushy snow. I'll stick to the plow.

With the weather we have had this year I wish I had a snowblower attachment for my tractor.
Then I could get all the snow out of the way.
But it would probably cost $2-3,000 for one.

Somewhere I have a picture of me with the ole' Gravely, grinning like a madman with one side of my head entirely caked in ice.

Good times!

I sold it for 3500 when it was in MINT condition, the motor was built though, wasnt exactly intended to be a plow truck...i never had a plow on it. it was more of a built mudding truck.

I could see it for your use.

I personally would never buy a second hand truck that had been plowed.
Too much salt and battering the frame.
