For the past 11 years, I've been using my Ford 841 to plow my long, steep drive . The front axle support broke recently, so now that the front loader and all is off, I decided to do some restoration work. After spending $375 already this year to have the drive plowed (and almost losing may basketball hoop to boot) I went out and bought an 11 HP, tracked Honda snowblower, and I love it! It is almost as fast as my tractor has been in bigger storms (using bucket on loader, no plow) AND, it gives me the oppurtunity to stop and jaw with all the neighbors who are out shoveling and snowblowing! I also have a wood splitter with a Honda motor, and a whisper quiet 3000W Honda generator for the camper, I love them too.

Waiting for another storm in Massachusetts!
