Just wondering if anybody else plowssnow here?
We had about 2 or 3 inches here in Ohio and I plowed from7am to 2pm yesterday.
Kinda nice to get out and make some money for a change.
It pushed easy earlier in the morning, but once it warmed up we had like a freezing mist here
and really started to get heavy.
Put 59 miles on all in parking lots, and think that doesn't include reverse!

 

I was out Sunday too! Plowed for @ 5 hrs or so. I'm in central Indiana, we had @ 4". Pretty easy push. First year using a Dodge, have used Chevy and Dodge in the past. So far so good. First snow we've had all year.....hard to believe. I see you have the accel coil. Did you notice any difference? I need a new coil. Mine is really rusty and have an occasional "random misfire" code. Think maybe its the coil. I've done plug wires, plugs, and cap and rotor. Engine doesnt seem like its got as much power as it should either. Still hoping for more snow too!

 

when i plow snow its usually with a CAT.

 

I do, but havn't yet. Up here in Jersey we havn't gotten much of anything more than a dusting yet this year. Its been a rather warm winter. Hell i was out on my waverunner a few weeks ago. It was 67 deg up here. I couldnt beleive it!

 

I plow for a company also. I don't use my dodge though it's a pretty big company and I don't think they have any dodges that plow. We got about 8 inches here in Wisconsin so I was out plowing for about 5 hours or so. It was the first timeI plowed and it was pretty easy money!

 

What kinda plow yall runnin?

I'm using a Boss 8'2 v-blade
My buddy uses a 9'2 v-blade.
His is alot better for large lot's ,but when it comes to drive thru like at banks mine does alot better.
I get a lot of guys asking for me to help on their lot's too.
Because they drive big extended cab lonb beds or even crew cabs and they can't turn around or back drag as easy as I do.

 

I wish I could start plowing. Don't have the money to buy a plow frame and plow. I guess I have some time to start saving since I live in NY which hasn't gotten any snow.

 

Just curios how much does snow revmoval cost in yalls area?
If it's a friend I'll do it for free but when it's business
Most of the time here u either bid by the job or the hour.
I usually charge 20 to 25 bucks an hour .
Some people think your nut's for chargin that much,
but when u think about how much this equipment costs
It's actually pretty cheap.
I meen think about it u could go out for 1 hr and break your truck or plow,
and spend any where from 5 bucks to a grand fixin it.

 

i plow for work.. i work at a hospital in the maintence dept. we have two trucks with crapy garbage western plows on them.. one GMC and a ford.. both garbage. lol. then we have a huge kawasaki loader with a push box mounted on it.. i drive the loader or the GMC.. boss tells me to get in the ford i tell him im grabbing a shovel

i live in western ny.. right betweeen rochester and buffalo.. we get the wonderfull lake affect snow flurries fron lake onatario and erie... friggen snow belt capital of the world lol

i work with a few guys that plow for $$ they usually charge betweeo 15 and 20 bux a driveway .. if its a large lot its usually worked out in a contract of some sort.. the one guy at work made 6400 in one week plowing for 22 clients.. i never realized it but its damn good money.. but you are right- its costly to start up and maintain

 

I here u on not wantin to drive the ferd Shott
The only thing that compares to a dodge is chevy.
I tell u what first year plowing I paid for my plow .
Last year I paid for my gas and a little more pretty much broke even
This year we just ain't gettin the snow and my plow's just sitin there.
