MalMac 1,331 #1 Posted December 25, 2013 Well all you members in the northern Mid-West, I know now that we will get lots of snow for you all to play in. I just sold my 2 stage blower that has been sitting around for the last 4 years and elected to go with a single stage. As for right now I don't miss that boat anchor sitting in the way. Maybe if we get waste deep snow I will have second thoughts. But as the rule goes "If you got it you won't use it. If don't have it you will need it" So anyway be prepared for snow. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kelly 1,029 #4 Posted December 26, 2013 Heck I rebuilt my tall shoot single 3 years ago and have used it once each winter since only to work the 520 it is attached to that I have not removed it from since I rebuilt the blower, I guess it keeps the hours low on that tractor, after all it is up to 425 hours now, most of the time I use the blade on another 520 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MalMac 1,331 #5 Posted January 6, 2014 If you live in northern indiana I will apologize now for the snow. I knew if I sold that blower we would get bad weather. I still don't have any regrets, just sorry I caused the bad weather. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AMC RULES 37,124 #8 Posted January 6, 2014 Woke up to a balmy forty eight, and windy this morning... predict it will dip down to four whole degrees overnight tonight. I'm thinkin' the forty four degree swing is gonna be a rude awakening when I leave for work tomorrow. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
