Western Snow Plow Review after 13 years - Plagued with Problems

What happens here

The creator replays the earlier phone conversation with Greg, a steel wholesaler, who reiterates that Western snow plows are supplied with 'cheaper steel cutting edges'. This wholesaler supplies various plow brands including Western, Boss, Hiniker, and Curtis. Greg claims that Western is intentionally providing lower-grade steel to increase sales of replacement cutting edges. The creator then shows footage of a skid steer operating with a snow plow, emphasizing the constant need for durable cutting edges in such operations. He expresses his plan to have aftermarket cutting edges installed on his Western plows to conduct his own durability test.

Goal: Validate the claim of Western using cheaper steel and introduce the strategy of using aftermarket cutting edges.
