So.....we have a plow for the truck. It's a Fischer 'Minute Mount'. That's suppose to mean that you mount it in on the truck in one minute. (This is actually possible if you have a flat cement surface to use - which WE don't.)
The first year we got it, it took us half a day to get that darn plow on the truck. Half a day and much swearing. And - I locked the keys inside the truck (the ONLY set of keys) and the truck was running. How much fun do you think THAT was?
The second year (last year) it took us 90 minutes, and we had to get the tractor out to pull the plow into the correct position. 90 minutes and minimal swearing.
This year it took us less than 10 minutes and NO swearing!! We were so proud :)
Of course the plow is now attached to the truck and not coming off until spring - so we'll look like idiots driving around with a plow attached and no snow, but it's all good.

You should buy a John Deere Tractor. The sno-blower just wheels right into place...no tugging, no lifting, no swearing. I know it probably can't do the job of the plow, but it surely cleans the driveway.....Love you guys....
