Few new pics

We got hit with about 20" of snow here in the Cleveland area in the last 2 days so I spent a hell of a lot of time behind the wheel of my truck drinking coffee. Don't let anyone tell you that you can not use a F-150 as a plow truck. Works damn fine for me.




I just thought this was a nice place for a photo and since there is no traffic by me I just stopped in the road and took it.

Another shot on that road...


The ENTIRE underside of my truck looks like this wheel well...


Here is a few of the piles I made...




Truck plows damn fine. I installed a EDGE to watch trans temp and stuff and the truck seldom goes over 150' when plowing. To be safe I picked up royal purple today and I am going to have the system flushed and filled with it as soon as I have a free day.

Hmmm....let me guess. Pics on the road are in the Metroparks? Valley Parkway maybe? It's pretty when it happens, but snow gets old after a while. You can thank my father for the dumping of snow....he was just commenting on his new snow blower that hasn't seen any action. Stay warm!

We got about 12" and lot's of wind, Medina County.

Here's what I use......

so I don't have to use this......

Of course if your plowing for $$$$ then I would want your setup, nice.

I used to use my 4 wheeler to plow with around my house. It gets old when the wind is blowing in your face and your sitting on it cleaning snow.

05FX4SCREW, yeah I think I was on valley or york when I took that. There is no traffic in that area at all.

Winter is nice and all but I do miss my truck looking like this...


Can't wait for summer so I can clean her up and put the toys back on.

Hey Bud, it was nice today!

Nico nice pic`s. Just got some pics from the father-inlaw. He lives in Greenbay. Snow looks to be about 2 to 3 feet outside his front door. Trying to get out your front door must be a pain in the a$?.

I do a lot of work for a company in Mentor and I'm always hearing about how cold it is and all the lake effect snow they get. I put the phone up to the air-conditioner and let them hear it run!
