Anyone plow this year? We just had 17 inches of snow Tuesday and another 5 inches Wednesday. I was wondering how much a 4x4 quad can plow.

Thanks. Jeff Fox

I keep waiting to get hammered inorder to see just how much my Rancher can do. If we ever get it I'll let you know.

I'm dreaming of a blizzard, Christmas.

Iv'e been plowing commercially for 5 years and the biggest snow was 24 inches and tou have to cut layers of snow to remove it . But up to 15 inches is not a problem, I plow with a Foreman 450S and a Rancher Es.

It's gonna depend on what size blade you have. The Rubi can easily handle a 60". For deep stuff, you'll probably need to make passes with the blade up first to "knock it down" to a more manageable depth. Having the rubber flap on top of your blade really helps too.
