SNOW PLOW PURCHASE ADVISE

[Scott-62]

I am looking for a snow plow for my toolcat I have the bucket and do not plow commercially but would like one to speed up doing my driveway. They seem to be fairly expensive why do they cost as much as for a pickup truck the toolcat already has the hydro and lights it seems like you could get a little better deal after all you are only buying a metal blade with a few cylinders for plow angle adjustment. Any one have any information on whats best to buy and costs ???

84" bobcat snow blade lists for $2070. Non brand name snow blades can be had for about $1500. I thought most p/u units are in the 3-4K range with lights, mounting bracket and pump.

I have an 84" Quick-Attach. I bought the "elephant ears" as well so it can act as a pusher. Works well. Looking at the Bobcat catalog, the BC looks like a QA or clone.

In theory, this is a good combo. I wouldn't know because we haven't had more than an inch.
