Can you post a picture of one of these "snowblowers" and maybe some of this stuff you call snow?

We spent lots of time on the canals with a small boat, I loved the trees covered in moss, so cool!
We do have a lot of humidity to contend with but you almost get use to it. Lot's of water down here so that add's to the humidity problem. What part of the New Orleans area did you live in...we lived on the Westbank for year's until we moved to the country in Lafourche Parish about 7 yrs ago. Wanted to get closer to Grand Isle where we have a fishing camp.

Get a commercial Grade Ariens... they're heavier duty than the box store ones and reliable as well. We have a good size one that my dad got 4-5 years ago. Some of our neighbors have ones that are 20-30 years old and still running. I cans see what ours was... probably right about 2k

Same here. Not quite 1.99, but 1.80 range.

Been looking at 28" ariens platinum sho..... Has auto turn (introduced two years ago) so no more triggers on the handles to disengage right or left wheels....trying to find a supercharged one to match my truck but that's probably not going to happen

Commercial duty is out of the question the prices a staggering.
