That’s not enough power to blow heavy, wet snow.

My ck 4010 is fine for light, lake effect snow, but pretty marginal for the early spring storms which are thick, heavy, wet snow.

I wouldn’t settle for less than a ck3510, but would recommend a ck 4010.

There's no way I'm buying a 40 horse. Unless you're sending some cash over. :)

I've been able to get by without a tractor but having one would be nice.

  • Driveway: We have a 120'~ driveway that I snow-blow with a walking snowblower; I put my snow cloths on and hat and take care of the job. That wet, heavy snow is what really gets me, it's very difficult to heave on that snowblower to move the stuff.
  • Lifting: I normally get compost, manure and use a wheel barrow to move it to where it needs to go. That distance has increased along with the amount. Lifting of pallets and drums would be nice.
  • Pulling: At times I need to pull some logs or a large wood chipper around. For the chipper we borrowed an ATV and the logs... we rolled but dragging would be good
  • Ground prep: Using a ground rake would be beneficial
  • Mowing: Not sure that I would mow with a tractor, at least where we are now.

I gotta tell you, JME, but you really need a tractor... don't know how old you are, but with a list like that, doing all that with limited or no mechanical assistance will make you old very fast... ask me how I know... :)

I just took delivery of a Kioti CK3510 with a 66" front snowblower, prior to that I had a Deere 790 with a 59" front snowblower. My Deere cleaned my 200' driveway for 20 years, all snow conditions from wet heavy to hard wind driven drifts. So far I've only got to move snow a few times with the Kioti, once in wet heavy snow and it did a great job!
