snow plow

[HOTFUN]

I have a Meyers 7.5 foot blade which I have had since 1989 and it was two years old when I paid $1500 for it then. It started out for use on my properties on a rustfree 1972 4x4 shortbox that I would totally drench the under body and box with used motor oil and it luckilly survived till about 96 when I changed it over to a rusty 71 Blazer to save the 72. I use it regularly on and I have spent maybe $500 total over the years replacing one pump and repadding the skids probably every two seasons. I highly recommend the short wheel base Blazer and definetely an automatic as going into tight places and backing it up is easy. I even took the rear bumper off for even tighter backing. I don't mess around doing any for hire jobs as even doing an occasional help the neighbor out has cost me several sprinkler heads, broken curb, and a mail box. Another tip is to always look over the job site before it snows and use markers to help out when all you can see is a smooth snow surface.
