Well woke up this morning to goto work and saw about 4-5 inches of snow outside. I just bought a new house last Feb and of course had to get a balls to the wall snow thrower..... Fired it up and went to town....Nothing like a gas power tool to make you feel manly! Like Tim the Tool Man Grunt! Grunt Grunt!

I love it!

We barely got a half inch of snow here yesterday & darling husband had to go to Lowe's and buy a snowblower! A strong wind is all we needed to move the stupid snow, but $500 later we had this monstrous machine in the garage.

He woke up early today to tackle our driveway (and probably everyone else's on the street) and was devastated to see how little we got.

Devastated enough to actually have the guts to wake me up and tell me we didn't get snow!!!

:evil:

I may kill him while he sleeps

Snow blowers? I live in the high desert and we get snow from time to time. But by the second cup of coffee, it's melted off the driveway and roads. We've had a white Christmas before, but why would anyone want to, oh wait. You use the snow blower to build large snow men??? Forts for the kids??? Giant G-Machines for the adults??? It did get down to 30 last night and it will warm to a nice 60 today, The Sun is out.

Hmmmmm . . . I wonder what turbocharging and 110 octane fuel would do to increase snowblower performance?? It could then be used for dual purpose such as moving leaves, small trees, rocks, mountains . . . just about most anything.

I have used mine several times already this year already. We had a foot of snow at one point already. Its only 2wd but I can still plow a foot of snow with no problem.
Here are pics from last year. Now everything on the entire quad has been polished with motheres.

Well here in the NE we use them to blast snow or for the west coasters, frozen crystalized rain, at all the tuner cars that go by. It's a very fun activity and spectator sport, fun for the whole family really.....
