I did have a pedal John Deere once...
Will you put down preventative products like salt to stop the snow lying on your property or will you wait until it falls then clear it with a snow blower, tractor or just by simple shoveling?

Share your methods here.

I will just push it with the front blade on my tractor. I do hope to get chains for the rear tires though.

I will push it with my 89 F250 diesel wit 7.5' Fisher, or my 98 Explorer with 6' Myers, or blow it with the 68" Meteor I am hopefully picking up tonight. We get a lot of snow and I plow for neighbors/vacation homes up here. I am quite prepared this year...:cool2:

Well I endured one year with just a Toro 824 when we got over 160" of snow.....vowed to never let that happen again!
A bit tricky eh?
