Wish I was doing that . We need snow and there's nothing in the forecast for SW Colorado. Asphalt really helps the melt.

No plowing this weekend. It was raining last night. Not good.

You should trade that Tesla in for a SxS or something fun!

👍🏼👍🏼
At this point it’s a garage queen. Only coming out when it’s nice ish weather.
I feel bad for my poor truck but it wouldn’t fit in the garage even if I wanted to put it inside.

Do you usually put your windshield wipers up when it snows or is there a reason the snow folk there leave them down?

Our daily drivers are in the garage so that isn’t an issue for us. I do see some of the locals with out side cars that do put them up.

Yes it does. There’s more to life than “ nice” weather. 🤷‍♂️
Is there? You're probably right, I would of much rather spent the day snow blowing than drinking wine watching the Niners win while sitting in the sun. 🤣

So whats your snowblower?

I've had good luck with a Toro, I bought the largest two-stage gas blower they made from like some place in Iowa and had it drop shipped to CA. Local stores didn't carry models I liked.

The Toro I have has wheels and my driveway is sloped. I've been eyeballing Toros newer tracked models but they have been getting horrible reviews for some reason.

I got mine fixed rather than buy new. Its been a trooper. Got me out of the Blizzard of ‘23. CA snow is like pumping concrete. I figure if I lived in CO I could just use a leaf blower. East coast snow pretty wet or more dry?

30 inch Troy Bilt. My driveway is around 100 foot, half with a slight slope. Blower works great.

Job security for keeping the snow blower active except it doesn’t pay that well. Wife keeps telling me it’s the only exercise I get. 😁

Love the snow! I wish we had some up here in eastern washington! Snow blowing is mysteriously satisfying. I've got mine ready for action but sadly no snow. I bought mine used about 15years ago. At the time, we had a very long driveway and were fresh transplants from SoCal. Plus it was down hill to the garage and I really didn't want the wife sliding into the house so I bought the largest walk behind blower I could find. Snapper 38" dual stage with power chute, heated grips, axle disconnect and 13hp Briggs. It's pretty bad ass!
