Good morning Jim, just running a couple minutes late. One of the city loaders pushed all the snow at the bottom of my road back a good 10 feet. I'm good to go, bring it on.

Now it is like concrete.
It can push some good piles (5'-6' high) but I am starting to run out of room.

Ice or no ice as long as the pile isn't already too deep a superduty could handle it. Now the piles I have at this point won't move. They are just too darn big. My one big pile is about as high as the roof on my truck right now. I should try to grab some pics after this next storm.

My truck is just to big for a plow.
It would make it almost 30' long.

That's the only reason I went with a short bed, cause I knew that I would be installing a plow on the front. I also don't drive around with the plow on, it stays at home.

Good morning and have a great hump day CT.

I am officially sending all the rest of the snowstorms to CT for the rest of the season. Got to save money to cut back our state deficit.
