When I had the new driveway poured I hyad them substitute depleted uranium for the aggregate.

 

For the most part I just drive over it. The city plows my street and pushes the 4 foot wall of snow into the end of everyones driveway. I figure since my 86 F150 will drive up and over 4 feet of the white stuff like it aint there then theres really no sense in shoveling. My 96 F150 and 82 F100 sit in the garage all winter, I'm sure I'd have to clear the drive off if I drove either of them. Although being the nice guy I am I do shovel the sidewalk in front of my place and I clear a path for the mailman to get to the mailbox.

If it gets real bad I got a 20+ year old Sears snow blower I found in the garbage. I'm to cheap to buy a battery for it so I just jump start it off the truck. Not sure why someone would throw it out, its only missing the pull string and the primer button has a hole in it. Just pour gas directly into the carb while turning it over and it fires right off. Once she warms up, and the thick layer of 2 stroke smoke clears the neighborhood, she runs like new I got a dinky little toro snowblower that I bought new, the first time I walked it into about 6 inches of snow it bogged out and stalled. Then I was out and about and spotted the sears unit in the trash. The auger on the front is about 4 feet wide, its self propelled with big tires that have chains on em. It'll throw snow onto the roof of my 2 story house If I'm not watching where I'm blowing. I'm sure its absolute overkill for my driveway but you can't argue with free.

 

Kubota B2620 with loader and 51" 3pt snow thrower. I'm not hooking the thrower up this year cause last year all we had was lots of ice or wet heavy snow.

 

We use a good old shovel around here. We don't get that much snow around here anymore and if we do the neighbors got a 30" snowblower he lets us borrow if we replace the gas. Our driveways not big enough for a loader or anything like that anyways, but I'm lazy so I'm still jealous of you guys who've got them.

 

I bet you go through tires like a fat girl in a candy store. lol

 

Here's some pics of what I use to clean my drive way.

 

We have a shaft driven 44" snowblower mounted onto our JD 445 commercial lawn tractor. We had a plow on our old 2004 F350, but we traded her in. I have an 08 F350 now... and have the itch to get a plow again. Kind of hard to throw the cash together in one lump these days...

 

When and if it snows I have a 1972 Wheelhorse Bronco 14 auto with a hydraulic 48" plow 80lb wheel weights AG tires with chains on them, I will do my whole street with it just for fun. When I angle the blade it fits right down the sidewalks also.

 

Usually I wait for it to melt. Now I've got to fire up the backhoe-loader so I can get out. Shovel? what's a shovel?
