Hey everyone,I have been a wheelhorse owner for probably 5 years now and have gone from 1 to 13 (don't tell my wife, I have them hidden around here). I currently use my bronco 14 to mow with and haul my firewood trailer in the winter, my 12 automatic I use for towing duties threw out the year and some mowing here and there, winter time it sees the most work plowing snow like a champ, I am 95% done on a frame up restoration on my 603. It was a complete basket case rust bucket when I got it but with a little time and help from some great friends and family it's almost ready to show at this year's Pennsylvania show. It will be our first trip down. I have met some great people in this community and I'm not sure why it took so long for me to join. If anyone is from Western mass feel free to hit me up.Matt

So this is my first post and I wanted to introduce myself and thank everyone here! I've been cruising the site for awhile researching what I could about the Wheel Horse 314-8 before making a decision to purchase one from a local dealer. Totally excellent site and a great help in my decision! I've never owned a Wheel Horse before but have had an early 90's MTD 12.5/38 LT and a much older small LT that I can't remember the manufacturer for. I have a long, steep driveway that I need to keep clear of snow (my elderly mother lives with me) and I really didn't want to go for an expensive new LT with a snow blower as there was no way it would hold up to the strain and I couldn't swing the price of a new GT setup. Then I saw this package at the local dealer but wasn't sure. It's a 1998 Wheel Horse 314-8 with 149 hours on it and includes the 42" deck, vacuum bagger, 42" snow blower, and the snow cab. Everything was in excellent condition - no rust, rot, or cracks! I had no experience with Wheel Horse and wasn't sure of their reputation. Boy am I glad I found your site! After reading a bunch of posts here about Wheel Horse and in particular the 314-8, I was VERY confident in my decision to buy it. It's being fully serviced right now (included in the price - sweet!) so I'm still waiting for delivery but here are some pictures of it (sorry, some of these are blurry - I'll post better pics when I get it home). I can't wait to get it home and put it through it's paces with some leaf pickup in prep for the inevitable snow!
