I plow in the winter for a company. My route consists of around 30 driveways at a remote lake. Its great, don't really see anybody all day and there are only a few year round residents at the lake. Truck is a '04 Chevy 1 ton with a 8'2" Boss V plow. Sorry, no pics.

My brother has about 35 jobs between 3 trucks. I love the Boss plows, They are so much faster than the Mighty Fisher plows.

Does a Honda Rincon with a 60 inch blade on it count

My first year using a quad, before I worked for my friends grandpas. Now I do 10 drive ways at 25 bucks a piece and its almost all profit (Rincon tends to use less gass than a V8 or V10). So I wake up at 4 do my 10 then go to school with 250 bucks in my pocket.

I plow my 800 foot dirt driveway with a 1984 GMC jimmy with a 8 foot fisher plow. My uncle just bought a 1995 F-350 with a 8 or 8 1/2 fisher plow. I'm kinda afraid to use that truck, because when I plow I beat the snot out of the truck. Last year I got the Jimmy stuck so bad the back left rear tire was 3 feet off the ground :lol: . Thank god for shovels, logs, and 4wd. What I did was smashed the throttle and I went off my road. I must say, that truck is a beast.

I plow snow too. Most of the time I use a 2000 GMC 3500 pick up w/ a 8.5' Fisher minute mount plow and a 3 yrd sander on the back. When thats not enough I jump in our 1997 John Deere 544 loader w/ a 12' Snopusher on the front of it.That pushes almost anything. I have around 25-30 commercial lots and a handful of residential driveways. I dont mind plowing but the hours really stink; whenever until whenever.

I used to plow at work with an 85 1-ton Dodge 4x4 pickup with a worn out 360 and a Fisher plow. Worked fine for me. I would love to get into it as a small business someday with my own setup. I did look at a '79 Cheby w/an older boss plow on it last year but decided to pass. To plow our driveway at home the old Farmall M w/lift bucket works great! You can really pile the snow up high...

Orange Shee how is the foreman, I dont have the country blade just the straight edge on the rincon (should i look into changing it). And it pushed WAY more snow than I thought. 300 bucks in 5 hours. 60 bucks an hour. God I love snobby people that group together in a neighborhood.

Here's my gem. 1985 K20 with a 350 and 4 speed. Picked it up for $400, got the plow setup for free. I had to put in a used distributor, t/*, brakes and a oil change. Plows just as much snow as a new $30,000 turck and I don't have to worry about payments or scratches.

Yeah we had to plow about 15inches this friday. So the jimmy was sitting for a year. Put a battery in it. Sprayed in some starting fluid and wham. Starts right up and runs just as good as it did last year. Its amazing what these 350 chevys can do. I was impressed.
