Plowing - front or back-which is the best plow? 19" of deep snow put thats to the test...

What happens here

Rick, the owner and original inventor of SNO-POWER, discusses the plow's ability to operate at high speeds (25-30 mph) for light snow, noting that snow acts as a lubricant. He emphasizes that the plow's design allows for safe, high-speed operation on small snowfalls, a task that would be impossible or unsafe with a conventional front-mounted plow due to potential impact jarring the driver.

Goal: Learn about the high-speed operational capabilities and the inventor's philosophy.

What they say

extend so this can scrub the curb and you're not getting into this plow as much that's what that's there yeah well really what we've got to look at is the distance from this point to this point screw it why don't you measure it where's the tape we got tape measure say it has more than Western I wasn't gonna say that John you just said it all right so let's see how many inches of blade you got left all right so this is a season you got a season on it but you got you got almost three and a half just a Titch under three and a half let's go measure a brand new one cuz you're cutting edge where as part of your maintenance that's nuts you seriously have only wore a quarter of an inch off your blade in a single season don't plow in 50 times yes and that's not you know Mon pop wow that's doing full commercial Lots oh yeah oh yeah long long runs too so it's heating up that the more snow you have there's more diversity that's the biggest thing if it's dry and you're running around it it's gonna wear out gonna be like a rash it's gonna cut it when you have snow on the ground it's smooth you're not even touching the cutting edge Rumble so while we were talking Rick said he plows at 25 to 30 miles an hour which I didn't believe so I pulled him into his office to find out a little bit more so you pause since 82 and you built your own snow paws for yourself that's where this whole thing started from and then as you made changes in advancements in the snow line did sell off the old ones to build a new one okay so you actually know how to snowball yes sir okay so that's the point when he said he plows a 25-30 miles an hour right you actually meant that you were mistaken no sir people don't usually call me sir this is I all right so tell me about that dog so
