The ATV plows snow great but the issue is not how well you move it. The issue is do you have a place to plow it! It is hard trying to find a place to plow the snow. A blower makes quick work of the snow and snowbanks are not a problem. I have a Honda 5HP snowblower and it works mint and for tight places it is WAY better than the plow. With the blower you don;t have to worry about making a place for the snow. Most blades don't lift that high on the ATV's so it is hard to push back large amounts of snow. They will move anything in front of them though.

 

Buy the bike, it is alot more fun than a snowblower, once you get used to it and banking snow high, you'll have a lot of good success plowing too. Key to plowing with an ATV is weight ans speed. You need to use a little more speed with an ATV than a truck plow due to it being so light. Don't count on plowing alot of heavy snow with blade angled either, as the bike has a tendency to go sideways. If all else fails, you can always get a sweet snowblower attatchment for your ATV (Honda 10-12 HP, 52" cut!!!)

I've had a plow on mine all winter and had a lot of great success.
