SNOW

I striped the hell out of my lawn when I had a lawn tractor. I now stripe it even better with a zero turn. I love mowing the lawn. This snow shit? Not a fan.

How long did that take, lol? I used to cut grass for a living when I was younger, now I just cut the grass at my Dad's as I am now living with him and working for him again (long story).

Ironically, he used to have a Toro zero turn....but it blew up. Twice. Lmao.

As soon as the snow is done I gotta go handle business.

We also use the tractor to unload pallets from semi-trucks. Put some forks on it and it becomes a hillbilly hi-lo.

Sometimes I go the opposite direction and turn right, but it always feels sacrilegious. :lol:

Probably get so dizzy you end up on the neighbors 'track.' Lol.
 
Never thought I’d get on the electric yard equipment bandwagon but in 2017 I bought an EGO snowblower (56v, used two 5 Ah batteries) and it’s been nothing short of amazing. Has the power and throwing capability of a 2 stage and never have I had to worry about shit gas, changing the oil, or any carb related problem. 3 seasons problem free (knock on wood).

There was one time when we got 5-6” of heavy wet snow where I drained the batteries. That’s with a 20’x20’ driveway, approach, and roughly 250’ of sidewalk (corner lot).

Besides that, never an issue regardless of quantity. The heavy snow just put a serious load on the motor.

Honda 4 stroke snowblower, I bought it in 2003 starts first pull every time. I drain the gas in the spring and run the carb dry before storing.
1 spark plug and a belt in 15 years, works awesome.
 
National Weather Service says 0.2 inches of ICE tonight. Holy crap! That is broken trees and power outage level ice. I am staying home for sure! Going to grab gas for the generator too just in case.

Good idea, I'm thinking the same thing.
