    The rack is bent down since we bought it, so far all the plow does is compress the suspension on the front about 1.5 inches or so.

    She is a old girl haha

    I cant wait for snow!!! too bad its suppose to get warm here in the next few days, bummer

    Your going to love plowing in the snow! I dont use chains or any added weight on my big red and she does snow just fine. However with the really heavy wet stuff I would say to get chains however theres always the snowthrower on the tractor for that if you want to paint the powerlines lol.

    Couldnt take it anymore! we only have like a inch of snow, besides what has drifted around. Still waiting on more but ive been waiting for weeks to try this bad boy out. I tell ya its the cats meow! I LOVE it! so much fun!
    The turning isnt as bad as I thought, turns a little heavier but not as bad as I expected. Defiantly need to bypass the reverse switch so I can just clunk from one 1st to N to Reverse easily.

    So far I need a few things, one some handlebar covers for my hands. And probably some chains when things get real

    Sweet! Forecast is showing another 2-5 inches here today into tonight, it just started snowing pretty good about a half hour ago. My BR is fueled up, battery is on maintainer, and she is ready to hit the snow with the plow when its done.
