I personally think the Meyer, Blizzard and Western are the best brands.
Snowplows are definetely not cheap. Thats why we used ATVs to plow our driveway instead of having a truck with a plow on it. You could buy a new ATV for $7,000 and a plow for it for about $300, which is a lot cheaper than spending $2000-$3000 and paying the gas milage penalty of driving a 3/4 ton truck and having to replace the truck fairly often because of how hard plowing is on a truck. |
Yea thats what I'm thinking too, like I said I'm just 2wd as well so add alot of wear and tear and limited capabilities on top of it. A used tractor with blade or ATV I can use all year so makes more since for me. My drive is only 50-75 yards long, so won't take very long with anything. We dont get enough snow to buy new plow and do it as a side job. It'd take 3 years to break even for the plow not counting gas and wear and tear.
