A snowblower is a one-purpose tool. And an expensive one at that. Both to buy and maintain (moving parts). A blade is way cheaper and can be used year around for lots of things. I have two tractors. One medium size utilty 4WD with a 7' loader on the front and an 8' blade on the back turned around so I can push going backwards. My larger tractor has an 8' loader on the front and a 12' snow pusher on the back. (for when it really snows). I've considered a snowblower but when I think it through, I really can't justify not only the expense but the storage room it would take up. Plus the maintenance. Friend of mine bought a big mounted snowblower made up in Canada for his New Holland TV 140. Bearing seized up right after a big snowfall that put him out of snowblowing for a while. He still had the scoop on the other end. That won't happen to a blade. Your call.
