I bought a 1655 diesel with the same cab earlier this year for the expressed purpose of blowing snow. I put a 7 ft single auger dual stage blower on if, but haven"t used it yet. Mine has 8000 hours on it, but only 300 on a complete overhaul with receipts from a machine shop and 150 hours on a new clutch and PTO. Everything seems to be in order.
