Got Snow??? New toy/mod!!
Well since William is jumping my case I will post up pics of my new to me snow plow! It's huge!!
My dad sold his pickup and gave me his snow plow. Its a couple years old but a very nice plow! Its a Blizzard 810 Power Plow. My dad sells these plow (well used to, this is the last year).
This model is an 8' straight blade with 1 foot wings on each end that extend out to make it a 10' straight blade then also scoop forward to make a 9'2" scoop. I have plowed with Boss plows (second job, different trucks) for the last 3 years and this plow moves a lot more snow!
The plow itself weighs 900 lbs and the hitch weighs 100 lbs.
here are some pics. More in my Webshots
8'
scoop
Also a few weeks ago I siped my tires! if anybody doesn't like how their tires perform in the snow this is for you. Many tire shops will do this for $10 a tire. After doing it myself I would have someone else do it! siping is jsut cutting the tire tread to give it more "teeth"

We have a boss plow pn one of my trucks, It does the reverse V to trap the snow, how do the wings hold up compared to the split boss? Looks nice. I have seen some blizzards that have the center cutout for visability, so it looks like they are designed well. Anywho, dont break nothing, dont hit nothing....LOL
