What happens here
The final major highlight is the Defiance XMP rear-mounted snow plow, demonstrated by Cal. This unique plow features a 16-foot straight blade with 180-degree reversible wings that can be angled for various plowing conditions, including a 'scoop' mode. All hydraulics and vital components are protected when the wings are folded in. Cal details its design process, including two years of testing and beefing up weak points, before its planned market release in early 2023. He also mentions a future 14-foot front-mounted version for compact wheel loaders. Key innovative features include urethane 'excluders' to prevent snow from flowing between the wings and the main blade, and 'live' cutting edges with internal composite springs for independent movement to conform to the plowing surface. The plow is priced at $16,900 and will have a limited production of 50-100 units initially. Control is managed via a wired remote from the truck's cab.
Goal: Discover the innovative design and functionality of the Defiance XMP rear-mounted snow plow.
