Here I sit, new big "used" snowblower I bought for the heated Oliver is a peice of carp, it sdoesnt throw the snow more than 5 feet, guessing the impeller is just wore way down from where it should be. The 544D just will not start this am, she just wont fire and it's been plugged in for 2 days,2 year old batt's are not cranking and I needed to put the charger on, so apparently i can't even use the smaller blower. So I resort to the skidloader and that smaller 66" litter/lightmaterial bucket. Been out since 6:30, it's now 9:45 and all I accomplished was to clear out a couple elderly neighbors so they could make it to church and break a trail down our 1/2 mile drive so the wife can make it to church. Now that I am good and frustrated I need to decide if I should by a blower for the skid loader( heated cab), go buy a new 3pt blower for the oliver(heated cab), or just go buy a plow for the 1 ton and try to deal with the snow banks along the driveway drifting me in, I have 100 acres+ open feilds to the north and northwest. I have been getting buy with what I have since the place was bought in '04, but them were pretty mild winters. Thanks for letting me vent, now to make up my mind before "el cheapo" gets in my brain again.
