Nice rig. Is that snow blower mechanically powered or hydraulically powered? Since it's yellow I assume it's a Deere brand blower.

I assume the tiller is for weight and that you haven't some odd form of alien plant life that only grows in tilled snow. :rolleyes:

How I want a warm, clean, comfy cab.

Very nice. They're making the new tractors as sleek and stylish as race cars. Since you live near Lake Erie I bet that blower will get a lot of use.

I second that, Nice rig and it is great to have the cab, I too assume the tiller is for weight, then on the other hand he may just be prepared for some really thick, hard pacted snow! Till it first and then blow it!!!

Nice rig. Looks like my 3720 with the 59" blower.
Question: Was hooking up the blower a little bit of a pain. Since it rolls backward I needed to brace it with a jackstand just a little so I could align the front triangle mount. Not a big deal, just that the 47" blower on my 2305 stands by itself.

Also, why do you want to till the snow? :)

Only kidding, I'm assuming you have that there for weight, although it would sure break up the hard crunchy stuff.....

Your hitch looks different then mine, I have the new style "A" Frame hitch as per the attached photo. What is yours?

I think you mean it's mechanically powered via the mid-PTO, But has hydraulic lift and chute rotation.

Sorry to correct you:rolleyes: but I am a stickler for details:D

That IS a great looking setup you have, I am GREEN with envy!

karman,

First you say you can't come out to play :( , now you can....:confused:

My offer still stands, come on out to my mountain and you can play for hours blowing snow into next week.

I had an idea about your counter weight, you need to park that tiller and get a rear blower instead, that way you can have your own Pushmi-pullyu just like Dr John Dolittle

**** theyre some nice setups, either of you guys have pictures available online like on webshots or photobucket i can browse through :) When i see the cab models in the snow all setup, it only reinforces my justification for a cab model !

Good question. My front blower/hitch is like TURBO36's. I wonder if there are two types of hitches. Mine was purchased April 2007 so maybe newer or older hitches are different.

I feel sorry for you guys with those cab tractors, you know blowing snow in your short sleeve shirts and shorts when the rest of us are freezing our *** off! Not saying I would'nt have a cab on my 2520 if they offered one. Anyway, Just kidding guys, Very, very nice rigs!!!!!!!!!!!

If I died and came back as a Millionaire, I would like to have that tractor. I just bought a 3203 but would obviously love that rig if I found a secret stash of dough in the attic. Staying warm, no snow and SHTUFF in the facial region, and no neck turnin'.....gotta get me somma dat money....
I figured the tiller is not for ballast so much as it is for diggin up the cash burried in the frozen turf to pay for it.
All the best with that lovely setup....wishin I were U!!!
Happy new years greetings from southern Ontario, Canada.

Hey, nice snow rig!
FYI the tiller; I drove snowcats grooming ski slopes in Colorado one winter and we had roto tillers on the back to bite into the hard pack snow to smooth it and break up the chunky bits made by the blade and the cat track cleats. Obviously this guy's set up to clear driveways AND smooth ski slopes? <:O)

That's A Great Idea! Tilling the Frozen Snow Banks! I could very easily see how that setup would be well utilized! Chip it away, and then blow it into non-existance!

There is something so wrong about about guys in shirt sleaves snow blowing their driveways, thats wrong on so many levels.:D Oh HONEY, darling, dear, love of my life can I get a tractor with a cab.:rolleyes: ...:(
