How to run a Snowplow Business: Red flags, pricing systems and what not to do...

What happens here

Following the front plow installation, the crew proceeds to attach a Western pull plow (also known as a snow pusher) to the rear of the truck. This specific model features an independent battery and tender system mounted directly on the plow, requiring connection to the truck's electrical system to maintain charge. The installation involves carefully aligning the truck with the pusher, backing up to connect the hitch, and then attaching the hydraulic lines and electrical cables. Minor adjustments are made to ensure a correct and functional fit.

Goal: Securely attach a Western pull plow to the rear of a pickup truck.

[Music] These people really want to see me back into this pile on the first time with no editing. I couldn't do it. I couldn't leave it unedited. It drove me nuts. I handed Todd the camera and instead of him keeping it on the plow, he actually kind of flipped it backwards and held it up to his chest. So, we got to look at his for like 30 seconds and stuff like that drives me nuts. So, couldn't do it. Sorry, guys. I couldn't make you look at Todd's for 30 seconds. Just a little bit.
