Thanks Cose,

Yea, West Virginia has some of the most beautiful scenery god ever created. Born and raised here. Been up and down the east coast and as far west as Missouri. Can't think that I would want to live anywhere else.

 

Warn has a 60" plow that your 650 shouldn't have any difficulty pushing. I run a Warn 54" with my 350 and have done up to 8" snow fall without any problem. If you run stock tires, and add a bigger plow, you might consider more aggressive treads. I first plowed with my stock Dirt Hooks and spun a few times on a 4" snow fall. Since changing to the 589's, no problems!

 

Thanks again Guys. One more thing: Does the mounting frame, accs. etc. get in the way when traveling difficult terrain? I do a lot of Deer hunting and may go down a Gulley or two. Peace......

 

When the plow isn't on there are 4 tabs on the bottom that stick down about 2 to 2 1/2 inches. They are pretty sturdy but if you hit a big rock they could bend. I always remove my mounting equipment in the spring to avoid any problems.

 

My Warn mounting plate puts the mounting brackets right behind the front tires. It wouldn't be impossible, but would be difficult to damage the brackets. Mine extend below the frame about one and half inches. I don't remove my mounting plate in the off season, I don't realize it's even there.

 

I always remove mine when I am going out to do any "REAL" riding. Much like cammoman says, you could damage or bend it up.

 

I live in Michigan and have a 50 county plow from moose. I love it. but where you are from I wouldn't waste the money on a 60 in and I would also not get the county version. The sixty inch is only really benifical in big snow areas and the reason for the two is because with the 50 in deep snow when you turn you will turn into an unplowed area. If you get minimal snowfall and have a realitively straight driveway, I wouldn't worry about it.
