I'm rock throwing distance from the factory!! No snow at all in Bradley!! It sucks!! Think maybe 4 inches or so all season!! These are the greatest people to work for as well!! Herd him say how many people they employ!! And for the most part I have was treated like family. When I pushed there!! Never had the pleasure to meet Logan!! Only his dad which is a Great Great guy!! Really is!! I haven't been there for 7 or so year's but looks as they are still pushing away!! Even with no snow where the equipment is put onto the ground!! God bless!! Enjoy the snow #Stan
I love that these companies are making mounting adaptors for other brands. Big annoyance is having a proprietary mounting system investment than want to switch brands and have to invest even more into another mounting system. We got the snow drought here in South central PA
This year sucks for me I normally have a plow driver do my driveway his truck took a crap I have been doing my driveway with a 21 inch Remington snowblower with broken foot my driveway is almost a city block , I really like how you show the new artic plows and snowblower attachments, I live in almelund Minnesota and were getting hammered this year and again this weekend
NH. Where i live we got a foot of heavy wet snow, ground was not frozen, so plowing gravel drives sucked. I have only had one storm where the ground was frozen. An hour to the west at higher elevation they got up to 42".
Hey Stan, I would love to see how that plow setup works on soft ground. I love how it preforms on pavement but I would love to see how it preforms on dirt roads when you have to plow 6-8+ inches but the gravel has thawed. Here in Maine our winter has been all over the place with very little frost in the ground and dirt roads have been a massive pain.
I'm 45 miles south of Toledo Ohio. Have had some snow this winter, but I haven't had to use the snow blower once. Just the shovel on the front and back sidewalks. Go NW more and Toledo there getting more usually. We have normally predictable snow line patterns both N and S of us.
Can't use plows in the town I live 50 miles from, all huge loaders. When the town was "redesigned/relocated " after the 64 Quake, they designed snow dump lots on every street! They have to push em back with dozers on a good snow year...moving snow is so satisfying.
north east illinois we only had 3 plowable snows. im an hr north of chicago along the lake. last bad season like this was 19/20 season also a 3 plow season
I plow 4wd trucks in 2wd and a loaded up bed, it works well and I save 4 for if I ever get stuck and it helps a ton for the heavy wet snow we get in the northeast.
I’m in NE Washington State. November/December we got almost 4 feet. January/February only had a few dustings, then got over foot last week. Now it’s warming up and melting.
I plow in 2wd 90 percent of the time. Have a loaded salter to help. We have a 2wd truck that plows all the time. With the right amount of weight and snow tires your fine but sometimes 4wd is needed.
Stan... Born in MN... 4x4 was to be used to get you out of a bit of bother.. if you were in 4x4 and got stuck you were already in trouble when you selected 4x4
Stan sunny and 60 in Philly tomorrow a few flurries yesterday but that's about it for the year so far at this point it would totally screw all the other work I have going on if it snowed
It was 45 degrees in Minneapolis today 3/15. Not sure when this video was filmed, but the snow is melting now and roads are clear. May snow tomorrow, but not likely to stay around long as it’s warming up.
All your snow has been plain rain for us here in NW Ohio. We are running over a foot below average for snow and our temps have been roughly 10-15 degrees above average since Christmas. Our snow plow operators are hurting.
I got 4x4 but most of my plowing I do in 2wd because I got the proper amount of weight in the back ( split unseasoned firewood) but there are plenty of driveways that I do that there is no way in hell 2wd would cut it , really also depends on the type of tires and typebof snow we get too obviously the heavy wet stuff is harder to push and easier in 4wd
I would like to see arctic, make their own version of a V plow all hydraulic. Of course a lot of us don’t have commercial properties to plow just residential.
I live in northern Indiana and I’m a bit envious of all the snow but we’ve got green grass growing around here and requests for fertilizer application already. Which is weird we normally don’t start until April
Will be in Duluth plowing for my brother's father in law for the storm on 3/16/23-3/17/23 sounds could be around 16 more inches. Just got 19 inches a week ago
Didn't get much snow in Davenport Iowa. Weather has been a roller coaster 🎢 and we missed, or dodged some storms. Getting ready for possible flooding ☂️
These plows are better built than anything out there and I've had vblades the western expandable scoop blade but when they trip they break your neck. The only thing that would make these the ultimate is if the wings expanded outwards another foot total
In Buffalo NY area where I live I got about 27 inches for December 23-24 known as the Christmas Blizzard, then December 17 got about 4-8 inches of lake effect, then November 17 got about 8-10 inches of lake effect, then overnight November 18 into November 19 got 13-15 inches of Lake Effect in 6 hours, then evening of November 19 got another 5 inches, then January and February was pretty quiet then late February got about 2-3 storms that dumped 1-3 inches each and 1 storm that dumped about 1/3 of an inch of freezing rain/ICE and about 2-3 inches of sleet/snow mix and in March got 1 storm that dumped about 4-6 inches
Yeah maybe I'm an over-thinker that's what they said about me when I was a child but I always felt that I thought outside the box I was always a problem sulfur and no I don't think I have all the answers but I would think what would happen if you build adrainage box the same way you would at the lowest point of the parking lot 10 ft deep 10 ft wide square with a a steel grate in the middle of this pit a gas fire ring like you would on a fire pit that is controlled by a temperature snow gauge that automatically comes on when you reach a certain exact temperature of snow forming where you could push all the snow to that catch basin boxit melts the snow in either puts it into the city rain storm drainage system or a basin and with the technology we have liked Hunter irrigation systems where they can't detect a disruption of over-watering use or no use of water allletting you know whether you have a broken line in the system or a valve that does not turn on that would break the pros and cons of a gas line feeding those fireno I'm not completely positive but once Waters at a certain depth it does not freezeas for the fire rings that course would not be at the surface nor would they be at the bottom they would have to be engineered where it kept the snow at a melting but not a burning off the toes you wouldn't have to stockpile the snow it would melt away and go into the drainageand if you could do that for every major parking lot like I said I think outside the box maybe that is a very far-fetched idea G.D. the pusherman
Any break downs? There trucks I mean. Must of been nice to hmgive your guys a break on a big storm. If artic dident show up you guys would of been beat.
Hey Stan, would you rather be in your area or up in like the lake Tahoe area? As for winter here in South Central Ontario Canada, it's been a hit and miss kinda winter.
At the end of the video, it looked like the passenger side was dragging while lifted. My wideout doesn't do that. Is there more play in the Arctic plow center pin? Another thing I like about the wideout... when you are in scoop and want to go to straight, but full width, it's just a quick bump of the controller, does the Arctic do that or is it a slow transition to wings back?
I had an older Fisher on a W150 which I added 300 pounds in back of box for counter weight. I’d pull in & plow, when got done I’d shift back into 2WD to get to the next job, I’d wonder why it’s not shifting easily out of 4WD, then would realized I’d never actually put it into 4WD. I knew the counter weight was something I required myself because of when plow was lifted to have traction to back out of snow piles easier, I didn’t think it’d help while plowing so much to not need 4WD while pushing snow.
Whats the weight on that plow ? Two wheel is ok but i think the front 4 whl drive helos you steer as well. I think we are around 35 inches..Two wet n heavy.Close to average Farmer john Ames Iowa
