Default Finally got to use my plow this winter

Well I finally used it and it works like a champ. We had about 2" inches of snow and about 4" of ice over that. It pushed that mess with NO PROBLEMS and I am using stock tires with no chains. I honestly didn't think it would work that well. I even did my neighbors driveway, I didn't think clearing snow could be that fun!

My little 3604x4 continues to amaze me as far as power. I was worried at first about not having enough power to do things like that. I'm about 220lbs and I have a 52" blade for a plow, so the Prairie had some weight to deal with when pushing snow.

It's cool as hell being able to turn work into play. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

awsome dude, i know how you feel, ive been plowing with my 360 and it does great. YOur right about the power, its not race power but great low end grunt for rough stuff and working. Low gear on the 360 can pull over a house. haha.

I agree, the Prairie 360 is surely no race machine but when it comes to doing work, hot weather or cold, this is one mighty fine machine. Loaded to the max with fence repair stuff and a big box full of junk on the rear rack mine gives a top end of just over 40 MPH by GPS. I seldom run over about 25 but take it some really rough places.

I have the Swisher push bar with the bucket and plow attachments as well as a rough cut mower. We have worked the heck out of this quad and what I appreciate about this machine more than anything else is the reliability. Always dependable. Also use it for trail rides and goofing around. Seems to hold it's own with other machines in the same general class.
