That looks like an ex PPL truck

What is your dad changing the tire on, a truck or a machine?

Sorry to be blunt, but what you have in all of the suburban would probably get you pretty far into a brand new one.

When I did my shed I added a thin second plywood layer to be sacrificial for tines, tire chains, etc. I put two coats of floor enamel on that to protect from spillls.

I can’t even imagine how far you’ll throw snow with that being hydraulic powered... watch the windows!

As a homeowner I don’t need either one but at the fire station we use Milwaukee fuel. We’ve even replaced our gas chain saws with them they are that good.

I never heard the term dog eater before so I googled it... all the first hits were Gravleys! Now I want to dig my LI out of storage and go throw snow over the house!

Perk looks good with Mack mudflaps!

Man I love e-ones... the Boston rig looks the best of the group. I miss our 95.
