Snow Equipment Owning/Operating RAIN,SLEET & SNOW!

daTeacha · Oct 30, 2006

I was in Michigan visiting the tractor's owner and the grandkids Saturday. We saw all the weather from sun to rain to sleet to snow sticking on the ground. And if we didn't see very the first time, it came back again a couple more. It made for a nice ride home, though with a good tailwind.

Roxynoodle -- I probably went past your place somewhere along the way. We took 30 west to 23/15 to 75 up into Toledo and then Michigan.

I run a grader with an excellent cab with Htr/AC. People really look at me funny when I'm pushing snow in a T-shirt. I carry cold weather clothing but like to strip down to a T-shirt and get comfortable. Takes me from 8 to 16 hours to go over my roads once, depending on how bad the drifts are.

I think I'll just throw the gear I used to wear when I plowed with my OROPS JD870 into a duffle bag and store it behind the 3520's seat. The only thing I'll be wearing is my underwear and a smile!
