You traded in Andrew for a snow blower? And it only adds 13 hp? How much torque?

I bet you could get a nitrous kit for it, for those extra deep drifts Either way, I don't think I'd want to get my foot caught in it.

i was gonna say 13 hp dont ya think thats a bit of overkill but then i membered you live i canada... so 13 hp might be a lil bit underrated for ya... need to get the 50 hp version that way you can take all the snow from your yard and throw it to your neigbors....

With that much snow, a Blower is essential.

Now you have a blower for your driveway and in your driveway.

Now get on up on your roof and shovel.

I wish someone informed my dad what those were for when I lived in wisconsin. Our snowblower always sat in the garage while I shoveled.

Manual shoveling builts character when you're young.

When you're old..........
