This is being auctioned off close to me. I suppose I could give it a try (if it goes cheap) just to see if it works. I should reiterate: I do have a tractor with a blade and it does move snow well enough, I just don't like how abusive it is on the tractor and I'm also just looking for a more...

I should have mentioned that my driveway is actually packed down crushed limestone on the slope and just "dirt" on the flat parts. Not really loose gravel. If I could do the whole thing in an hour that would be awesome. It often takes hours to do it with my tractor. I do have space for a truck...

I've read a lot of that forum. I didn't actually join and ask any questions though.

Those things are $10,000. Holy cats! That's a lifetime of paying someone else to do it.

I think he was trying to be funny.

Ok. Thanks everyone. You've given me a lot to chew on. Guess I'll hold off for now. We get some pretty brutal storms her and it's often well below 0. It actually takes me a really long time to do my driveway with the tractor because I spend so much time making and manipulating the piles...

I'm new to the idea of snow blowers. For the past 20 winters I've used my tractor and blade to move snow. I've had a couple of winters really kick my **** because of the sheer volume of snow here in NW Wisconsin. Even though I try to plow an extra wide path, sometimes I have a pretty narrow...

I found this article. I didn't go looking for confirmation of what I was already going to do (though I have been known to do that), I just stumbled upon it. This guy actually purposely puts his indoor units close to the floor. I know a lot of you would disagree with the guy, but at least I know...

I've been worried about this issue in the garage. I have I-joists overhead that are 16" tall on 16" centers. I'm worried that all my heat will hang out in those cavities. I may install a ceiling fan to see if that helps. I may also insulate and make sure the insulation batts are level with the...

That's very similar to my set up. I should have gotten a floor unit. Oh well. Hopefully with a ceiling fan going it heats/cools ok.

Whether this is correct or not, it's my favorite answer. I just gotta get this thing done.

Thought about this and looked into it. There would be a lot of head bonking for sure.

I know on this unit you can adjust the louvers to adjust the horizontal direction. I thought about putting in a ceiling fan too.

Great info. Thanks. I'll check that out. It's a 28k dual zone Senville Aura (hyper heat) with an 18k head and 12k head (for upstairs).

Yeah, probably another good option but I already bought the stuff and had it shipped here. I did weeks of research on this but didn't really go down the right research paths I guess.
