Dig down or float on top?

So all things being equal a SRW truck will push more snow then a dually?

I guess it would depend on the traction of the "cleared" side of the blade. If you're able to get to dry pavement than the dually would be better but swr will do better if the is still snow.

Simply put the swr will out perform I just driving through a gravel road with say 10" of new snow on it, everything else being equal.

So, now that I've decided to get a truck & plow for next year... and I tend to over think everthing LOL... what about something like this on a truck? Best of both worlds? Small contact patch on ice and hard packed and flotation when pileing snow...

Obviously not for road use... but may be the hot ticket to push banks back once or twice per season...

Maybe some form or dually setup with smaller diam tires on the front would be comparable.
