All right, guys. I'm with the snow power folks. I'm with Bryce. How are you, my friend? >> I'm doing good. Doing good. >> All right. So, these are the mullet people. What do you mean by mullet? Business up front, party in the rear. So, >> let's let's talk about the back end. This is brand new. >> This is brand new. >> This year, so we now have active cutting edges on our wings where before it was just a standard wings. As we know, as the parking lot gets bigger, your plow's getting bigger, your parking lot's not level. So we now are able to contour up to 16 ft on the pavement with our active cutting edge. >> Oh wow. >> So you're contouring the entire time. So the entire wing has an active cutting edge, a static edge on the back, and a active wing on the other edge. Correct. Correct. >> So you're technically contouring 8, four, and four. Okay. So you have three different sections which are contouring simultaneous. Yes, sir. >> Okay. And you got an easier hookup system. >> Easier hookup system. So, we went to these hook styles here. So, right now the plow is it's it's off the truck. It's fully disconnected. And then when John goes down here, we'll connect it real quick for you. So, just like that, connect it. Turn the pins and away you go. >> Earlier was this when I had my snow pop. >> I know. I mean, that back off, too. >> Yeah. Let's take it off. >> Pull it off. >> All right. Play that back. >> Drop and go. >> Your dad never stops innovating. Or was this your idea? >> It was all of us combined. It's all teamwork. >> But let's go. Let's see what's going on in the front end. Unless we unless we haven't seen everything back here. >> Well, we went to a single lift cylinder and we went to a torsion instead of a spring blade. So, it's torsion down here. >> Okay. >> Um, we updated the hitch up here a little bit. You know, on and off. The wings no longer go 180. They're 135. >> Okay. >> And uh that's pretty much it. A lot of change though. >> One best thing. >> What's that? >> Trip. >> Well, yeah. The main board does trip now. When you push it in reverse, it will trip if you hit an obstacle curb. >> I'll go over a manual cover, but >> Oh, wow. >> Yeah, the whole blades beefier. The wings are beefier. >> New design box. >> I can see all of the upgrades that you have done. This is >> It's 5 years in the making. So >> five years of R&D and I didn't know about this. >> No, we kind of kept a tight lip. >> You did. You did. All right. Um, but give me some details on this. We before we go up front, I >> I want to make sure that these guys that are interested in this has the absolute best information possible. Okay. So, I do want to slow this down just a little bit. Let's look at this torsion bar in the back. Tell me about what's the point of this and how this works, right? So before we just had that spring plate and every once in a while the blade, you know, it fatigues. It wears out. Now we have the rubber in here. Okay. So now we're going to be on the rubber. You no longer have that springboard that you're just you're twisting the steel and it's just not good. Now we're on the rubber. It'll last a lot more. It'll pick up even every single time. >> Okay. But now is the snow power back blade back in business with you guys? Yes, >> it was Red for a while and it was fine as red. They built them like a tank and that's a good company. >> Yes. >> But it was not true to your family. Now you guys have complete control of this. >> Complete and it's never going away. >> Never going. So you guys own it. It's your baby at this point. Tell me about what you did in here to to make improvement. >> So inside the box, we still have our battery back here, but now we have an upgraded pump and motor. So originally we had a motor that was lasting about 300 hours. Now we have about 600 horsepower uh motor. >> Okay. >> I need to cut you off. That's good information. But >> have you solved the problem where people are not able to tow with this unit? >> Is it easier to take the entire unit out? >> So if you look back here, >> okay, >> before we had that block, >> the 2in block that went in the receiver and we had to fight to get this pin out. >> Yeah. And your dad was torqued when I was fighting with it one time in a snowstorm because I was doing things bass backwards cuz we're tired and in a rush and it was easy to get confused. >> Yes. >> So you eliminated >> on this back side. It's a hook. It will sit down there on the hook and it will line it up there. So as soon as you get it on the hook, >> it will lay into your rails. And this pin, you just pull it right out right now. >> Show me. Just show me the pin you're talking about. Don't >> this pin right here. >> Okay. So that pin right there. >> Yep. It could be in the air plow down. That pin will always be loose >> and then you just pull out your fork. So you get it on this hook >> and it lays down. >> Okay. >> It's a lot faster. >> So it's faster and easier to eliminate the entire system that way. Or you can just take the plow off, the back plow off with that couple snaps. >> Is that everything in the back? >> Yes. >> Let's go up front cuz I want to see the new VP power that you've got going on. I've never seen. >> So, now I know this one has been out. I I don't have one. I haven't ran one, but I want to show you guys. This is awesome [snorts] looking. Look at that. I mean, when we did run them, we loved them. I mean, we did love the snow power. Absolutely love the snow. It's Alex is in love with the snow power. Yeah, he's a massive fan. Um, >> tell me about this, Bryce. >> So, this is our 11 foot Bplow. It has a 2 and 12 foot center board, 4 foot wings. It's >> gorgeous. Let me just >> Let me just wipe the drool off my channel all that. Okay. >> So, we do have our active cutting edges across the full length of the wing. >> Okay. >> Because you know those guys with the V plows, they're up in the air driving down the road. What does their wing tips do? dig into the ground. >> We're pretty far forward on that diesel. >> We are, but we do come back 5 in for our transport mode. >> Okay. >> So, we'll suck in. >> Can you Can you show me that? >> Yeah. >> All right. I'll show you that. >> Never asked the guy to show me how he sucks it in, but let's just see. Okay. So, you guys see how it sucks in, raises up, and now we're in active transport mode. >> Correct. >> Okay. And I'm looking at the center. >> You guys never stopped innovating. >> No, sir. >> That's the thing I see right away. I'm looking at your center uh hitch pin, how you've got this mounted. I'm looking at the entire >> cylinder, our push cylinder. Okay, here's the thing. It does keep getting better and better. It's my first time seeing this. >> But what happens if I bought one 3 years ago and I'm like, [snorts] son of a dog. It's much better now. >> Are we are you going to continue to make improvements on this? So, in a year or 2 years, their their product that they buy from you now is going to be outdated and they can't get parts for or tell me about that price. To be honest with you, I think we finally hit the nail on the head and this is the latest and greatest right here. I don't there's maybe one or two things we might do, but All right, guys. I'm going to jump in here cuz I'm not really sure if I'm buying that last statement about them being done because if I know his dad, he never stops innovating. But on the flip side of that coin, you don't have to worry that your unit's going to be outdated if they do upgrade it. Simply because what I have seen him do in the past is when he's upgraded his other snow plows, he actually spent an entire year just driving across the country to who had ever boughten them and fixing the plows on his own dime. It was pretty unreal. And I don't know if people knew that he was doing that or not. to me. Even though, you know, you may worry, oh, is my plow going to be outdated as soon as they upgrade them, if I know this family from what I've seen them do in the past, just because they make an upgrade doesn't mean you're left out in the woods. It just means you may all of a sudden be upgraded. So, who cares if they upgrade them or not? >> Even then, it it's all comparable. You can swap it. You can upgrade at any point in time. I think we're there. Price point? >> Uh, this is 16,000. >> Price point >> 15,000. >> Okay. >> And you have a dealer network? >> Uh, yes we do on our website. >> And the war I mean you guys have had problems. >> Yes. >> And your dad is one of the most upstanding guys that I freaking know. I'm saying this to you guys on a personal note. Your father has had people that have problems and he's gotten up out of his bed in Michigan and he does not need to do this. This man does not need to work. >> No. He's got plenty of money. >> And he will load up that truck and that trailer and he will go down the road to make sure people are taken care of. He admits he's not perfect. >> No. No. >> But he tries. >> Oh yeah. >> And my hat is off to a man that is willing to do that. So I I do appreciate that about you guys, about your family, about what you've done, and I love the innovation that you have brought to this. This is the new snow power front and back. His website is >> snowypower.com. >> Right there. snowy power. >> Thank you, sir. >> Thank you. >> And thank you guys for going along for the ride on another video. I see you there hitting the like button and helping out with the algorithm and it goes a long way. God bless and go get them, you guys. We'll see you in the next one.
