I have a homemade plow that is 64" wide. I've been plowing my churches parking lot off for the last 3 years with no problems. I can actually plow it faster than a neighbor can with his truck. I leave my Vampires on all the time and have not noticed any chewing up on them from plowing snow. Biggest problem I have is when backing up. I have to push the override button in and leave it in while backing up. I can push it fast enough that when I let off the gas it will slide the rear tires. (EBS) Then when backing up , it will spin just a little before locking the front back in. Sometimes it will turn me sideways a little. Sometimes it will only lock one side in and try to pull the bars out of my hands. Most of the times it backs up with no problems.
