plowed for many years with my f-150 and a 7 1/2 foot fisher plow, made sure i added a tranny cooler and beefed up the front springs, did driveways - what a pain, always having to chase folks for money, did town roads always eemed to get stuck with the roads no one wanted to due like the dirt roads did an insurance parking lot, now there's where the money is! been plowing the interstate now for the state for many years now, with an F-450 now thats the way to go!
I wouldn't trade it for anything. There's nothing better than making that first pass on a lot at 3AM with the windows down, radio cranked, and snow blowing everywhere.
Now....What is it I was calling you guys? "snow plowing 's'".......What's an 's'? Tried to edit. Think I was saying 'fans'.........Wouldn't let me edit even when I tried it before the hour was up. Oh well.....
I don't have my own rig, but last winter I started driving a '91 International single-axle dump truck with a 8.5(?)' V-plow for a friend of mine who owns a landscaping company. Of course, INDOT got on his case this year, so now I am trying to get my Class B CDL before the snow flies. I have my medical card and learner's permit so far. I meant to get some pics last year, but forgot--and we didn't get much snow, so I was only out a couple times (16 hours straight the first time, 20 straight the second).
All I know is that I hate manhole covers that are above pavement level. At least nothing broke.
