man, i love this quad... if anyone's looking for a mid sized quad thats tough as nails and all heart, this is the one... the suzuki KQ450. i am nothing but impressed with it. just finished plowing my driveway and 2 elderly neighbors driveways and its amazing how much snow it can move. not to mention the many times i've been out at -30 or worse and its never skipped a beat. best 8 1/2 g's i've spent in a long time... looking forward to some mud to try out the new rubber... they sure bite in the snow!!! 
Any pics?

I thought you would have taken out that quad when you got the new rubber put on last year. Trust me the new rubber is awesome in the mud. Only drawback I found was the cleanup afterwards!!!!

Yes, it is just north west from Langham. We sold the farm about four years ago now. I heard the new owners added on to the house because they had 5 or 6 kids and it was only 1060sq ft.

Quad looks great with the mudders on it.
Those will be great in the snow to, but i bet they are all but useless on ice.
My quad with mudders cannot climb a 2% grade on ice....unless i get out the drill and use it to screw in about 400 short sheet metal screws, that helps a lot.

The framing, insulating, and hanging the gyproc is all easy.
But unless you have more patience than Job, hire out the mudding/taping/sanding.
I have done a few reno projects, and finished my own basement, but never again will I mud and tape.....Unless maybe I become an alcoholic to calm my nerves.
I am a perfectionist, and it would take me 2 years to mud and tape a whole basement.....I got one bedroom done in my last basement I was doing, then hired a guy to finish it for my sanity.
