V-plow vs. regular?
#11
As a person who spends all winter fighting snow as a highway foreman I can tell you the uses of a true V-Plow. The V's we use on our grader is made to lift and break up the heavy snow. The one ways (County plow) are fine for diverting the snow. But for my driveway I have a home-made 3-way 56" wide, the secret of plowing driveways with a ATV is to start in the fall and push straight back as far as you can because the banks move in fast. When the banks get to close you have to get a loader to push them back or start using a snowblower.( People who plow with 1/2 tons have the same proublems) I like the looks of the Moose county plows and if the can be angled or rigged for a staight push they might be OK. But for my money I would get a straight plow that angled at least 3 ways.

Hey Duse,
We just got dumped on Mon-tues am only 14 inches or so,not as bad as you guys I heard . I went out with that snowblower and kick some serious butt. I gotta tell you though that sucker get down to the bare ground and it does on heck of a job. I used the SP500 w/plow to clean up after I was done. With the amount of snow we got this winter if you don't throw it or push it back far enought like highway man said the piles start coming in on ya.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]
