wish i could put one on mine but my 2wd 4.2L would probably flip forward and leave the drive wheels off the ground. Im sure you'll get plenty of snow up in cleveland. Here in mansfield, ohio we get plenty. GO BROWNS!!! we might actually turn it around after sunday.

BTW nice setup... I used to live in NY and Michigan and that rig will be handy.

Looks good!! Does the plow have down pressure or does it just "float" like most plows?

Uhh....

Plow is a floater. Downforce is really only needed on those real light plows like the snoways.

Cost was a little under $4000 installed. Walked out of there today spending alittle over though because a new Stihl chainsaw would not let me go home without it.

Yes, Cleveland does get a ***** ton of snow in a normal season. usually in the neighborhood of 100"+, and of that, at least a handful of 12+ in one storm.

Warbat66 as for the Browns, I love em, but one good game is not enough for me to get my hopes up just yet. I find it easer to accept that they will just loose all the time, it makes a victory that much better.

Yeah if you live on the east side, or in the snow belt. Out in the western burbs' where I'm at we maybe get a third of that.

stihl chainsaws are such beasts. we have three of them on our ranch, never have any problems. two of them are quite old too, still run like champs, you'll love it.

and that plow is awesome btw.

Tight looking setup. Hope you get the snow to make up for the cost.
