OK it is time to show off what ya got! Winter is back, it is freezing cold but I am sure glad I have a blower whipping snow in my face in 50 km/hr wind gusts as opposed to hacking it with a shovel. Give a rundown on your beast of burden and post a pic!

Mine is an Ariens 2 stage 520. Just a wee one but built strong in the good ol' US and A. I used to run a 30+ year old John Deere (which I loved) but my father in law I think felt sorry for me always fixing the night before a great big storm so he dropped this off at my house one day :)

It may take an extra pass or 3 to finish the driveway over the old Deere but it tucks away tight in the shed for the summer.

Batter up! Who is next? Let's see that new 3 stage monster Mitchie! How about your beastly tractor or 4 wheeler Dok?

this model features an ergonomic D shaped handle grip, and straight shaft, an extra large mouth makes removing snow a breeze. reinforced high carbon plastic construction allows you to break up stubborn ice and snow banks with confidence, this shovel will not leave you stranded in a snowstorm!!

Meet the M.C. LIBERATOR
She's one mean bitch. Can chuck a 3lb hunk of the driveway 3 yards over.
not exactly whisper quiet and a little ominous looking at night with the 10" orange/blue flames shooting out of side.

Treat the flame thrower as an added bonus for lighting your cigar after a job well done.

no pics - but we've got an old Toro 2 stroke. Think it's about 30"? probably 15 + years old.
Friggen awesome machine. The only thing I've done to it is spark plugs, just recently a new primer and yearly lubrication.
Can't kill it!


Just picked up a buddies "blown up" 2 stroke Ariens blower as well. Changed the plug and it runs like a champ.
Never trust a "service guys" advice. LOL

P@ - yours is sweet. Reminds me of my Dad's Beastly Gravley. That was a tank of a walk behind.
