My brother in law had a blade on his 4 wheeler and brought it out to plow our driveway once. Even with chains on all 4 wheels it really struggled to keep going when pushing anything. After a couple of hours, he put it back on his pickup and left. I finished the plowing with my Ford 641D and back blade in about half an hour.
Now that was some years ago, and I assume that there are much larger and more powerful ATV's than my brother in law's, but for pushing more than a very little heavy, wet snow, it didn't work worth anything. He is a large man, so I doubt that it was a question of weight, but the setup he had just didn't work well. He got pretty frustrated, especially after he had bragged that he could do the job real quick and easy. I never saw the machine again.
Kind of like sending a boy to do a man's job, as my Dad used to say.
