also dont approach snow at hi speed and dont ram large piles of snow

and driving with that extra load on the front end will be a bit of a problem on pot holed roads and black ice or other slippery conditions will compel you to drive slower and brake sooner.
Thanks Mike. This is for use on my personal property. I expect to take it easy on the truck. One of the reasons I want to go 8 foot is that I plan on spending quite a bit on the plow, about 6k, and from what I understand 8 foot has a lot more resale potential. I may eventually get a tractor and no longer need the plow.
