I don't have a Woodmax snow blower, but I do have one of their chippers....very nice quality and I do recommend Woodmaxx products.
That said, availability of the Woodmaxx snow blower might be a problem this late in the season. I had to wait a few months for the chipper as these are manufactured in China. I assume the snow blower is as well
LandPride also makes great equipment (had one of their rotary cutters a while back) and the unit is available right now.
My suggestion is go with the LandPride. As far as the width, you can always add wings (those might even be available through LandPride) which will give you 2-4 more inches of width
Actually Woodmaxx has been out of stock since this summer & just got a batch of snowblower in last week (got the in-stock notification finally). Doesn't look like they have sold out yet.
Dropped the L4060 off at the dealer for leaky front axle seals & saw 2 blowers on the lot. Got a quote & he verified at least one wasn't sold yet.
The Woodmaxx is $2k cheaper, hair bigger auger (if that means much) & a HDPE lined chute, made in China. 6.75" deep fan. 755lbs
The LandPride is 2" wider, made in the USA, probably has better parts & support. 8" deep fan housing (may or may not mean fan itself I suppose). 545lbs.
Fan diameter, number of blades, chain size, QH compatibility & most other specs seem to be pretty much equal.
LandPride is a hair bigger but lighter, which isn't great if we assume weight equals strength. Really torn if I should shell out the extra $2k for a possibly lighter unit with better support.
