I used to use a 9n to plow my drive, pretty level 1/2 to 3/4 mile long. Back blade wouldn't cut it, used a six foot blade mounted on the front loader. Light to medium snow, dry no problem, or at least not much. Get a wet snow or a large snow and I had my work cut out. Not impossible but definetly not fun. Also get's real cold out there plowing. Bought a used 79 Ram Charger 4x4 with a power angle plow. What a difference. Faster, less trouble, a lot warmer and I might add a lot safer. I still have the tractor and use it for other things. Might add not much beats a 4x4 for plowing, I used to do it part time commerically and if taken care of and not abused a good heavy duty 4x4 will last a long time. Can also use it for bringing in the fire wood if need be. Good luck.. Bill
