Just wondering if anybody on here has a Erskine Front mount snowblower, looking at getting one either a 721 or 781fm. These look pretty heavy duty.

I have a 5200 that I mount a 7'6' Western plow on the FEL. Built a quick attach mount for it so I just drop the bucket and mount the plow. Bought the plow for $200.00 and had the steel laying around. My driveway is 1800' long and with a foot of snow it takes me 45 minutes to clear and is a lot cheaper than a blower. Used plows are cheap.

That is a good idea, my problem is my driveway is 1500 feet long through the woods, winding, and in northern Michigan. This is my cabin, and i dont get there every weekend to keep up on snow, so it gets fairly deep. So there is no where to push the snow as it piles up along the drive, over three feet. Im thinking a blower to get the snow out in the woods.

There are a couple guys here that have Erskines. I have yet to hear anything negative about them.
