Too Many Snow Weapons???

[TimberXX]

I am in the process of selling my two year old honda tracked snowblower, and already got a tractor snowblower and snowplow. I have a 200 ft driveway.

I came across a sweeper for a song... $400, and bought it.

But now I have three attachments for snow, and I only live in northern New Jersey.

Anyone else have a blower, plow, and sweeper? Does it really make sense? Should I sell the plow?

That's the problem with too many attachments , I just use the bucket and rear snowblower. The wife has a 24'' snowblower a few years old but looks brand new..I have 5 attachments that I'm going to sell next year that I don't use.....

I wouldnt, unless storage space is a problem or theyre sitting outside rusting. You never know when one might break and you’ll need the other attachment.

You could always use the bucket...And what Hay Dude said outside rusting is not good..

The more toys the better as far as I am concerned, I'm thinking I need something for every condition.

DaninOhio... lets not be calling them "toys".... I justify my purchases to my better half because they are tools.... don't go ruining this for me... :laughing::laughing:

I agree... I wouldn't sell them unless you needed too.... or unless one of them really doesn't work for your particular conditions or situation...

Keep the plow and blower, they will take care of everything NJ winter can throw at you. Use the sweeper for leaves and clean up the lawn in the spring!

I have a plow and rear blower. Very happy with that setup. Small storms get the plow. Big storms get the blower.

Make sure you keep us in mind when you go to sell them! What attachments are you looking to sell?

 

[RoyJackson]

I wouldn't sell any of them...
The sweeper would be great for those light dustings...the plow and blower for heavier snow accumulations

You need to buy a fully enclosed UTV with plow. Its a long drive to the end of the driveway.

Perfect. Now to build a barn with a cement floor and put all implements on dollies, it saves time and your back. you may not use them much but you get a barn.

 

[PILOON]

Keep the shovel!
If all else fails----

 

[TimberXX]

I知 convinced to keep all three. I tried the sweeper this fall, and tore up the grass, I even adjusted the wheels a bunch of times. Any recommendations?

I have 2 barns already just had a new one built........

 

[fitter1]

Nice...one for each tractor:thumbsup:

I built a 30 x 40 shop 24 years ago cause i was sure id never fill it and its all i could afford at the time. Filled it

Then built a 30x60 carriage barn again thinking i couldnt possibly fill that also. Cost 4 times what the 30x40 cost, and i was wrong. Filled it also.

So now i wont buy anything else that wont fit into the shops i have. Heck, i saved lots of money.

Poor horse people...:laughing:

I forgot about the 36x60 horse barn with two sided lean to’s and the wifes garden shed. Too many buildings.
