    Plow truck took a chit and needed to change things up after plowing commercially 25 of the last 35 years so I put a 6 foot plow on the front of the Ranger. Just can’t keep things widened out with it on a 600 foot driveway.

    Every 2-3 times plowing I take care of the furrows with Obi-Wan Kuboti blower. Drifts don’t stand a chance lol

    Nice find Brian! Home Depot lists those well over double what you paid. :dex: My boss has a similar one that he loves. Now you just need some more snows to try it out?? :picard:

    Ranger is nice because of the heated cab. Gets a little cold on the tractor but it ain’t bad once every couple weeks

    Haven’t hit anything with this one. The first one I bought was a great big 84 wide x 42 high Loftness. Softball size uglies from around the log pile were no match :rofl: :lol:. I hit a slab of basswood at idle and it got wedged in the fan and stalled the tractor. I knew there was stuff in there but needed it cleared out. Thankfully I wasn’t at pto speed. Probably would’ve snapped the tractor pto shaft off

    Yeah have 78” meteor blower on back of Kubota it can handle 2 feet easy. It’s the 2 inches you don’t bother with that’s gets driven on that’s becomes issue

    heated cab for the win

    Old one was a unit. Made for 80–200hp tractors. 28 x 11”d fan, 24” auger. L48 would run it but heavy for it

    Picked this up this MK Martin blower at the beginning of the season. So far it's been awesome not always facing backwards.
