Red144runner 658 #1 Posted September 14, 2016 There is a clean nice running 3/14 for sale for $500. Tractor only. Currently I have a 3/12 with a 36" deck, 44" dual stage snow blower and 42" dozer blade. Was thinking if set the 12 up with the dozer blade, tiller when I find one. And use the 14 for the snow blower and mowing. But with the 2hp gain is it worth it? The 12 runs super and ran the big blower for years. Suggestions? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jay bee 915 #2 Posted September 14, 2016 Two are always better than One . You never know when one may run out of gas, or some other major calamity, and you will need a backup. Anyway that is what I told myself!!! Jim 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JAinVA 4,638 #3 Posted September 14, 2016 (edited) Sounds like a fair price,at least in my area of the world.While the decision is yours you know you can't have to many.Right now I have the 416-8 with 42" side discharge setup for leaf harvesting.The c101 has the tiller mounted.The 416H has the single stage blower mounted since I got a new flag from Wheelhorseman.The big ugly 520h is set aside for moving fire wood.What is really nice is that if one is down for maintenance or repair the others can step in to take the load.JMHO,JAinVA Edited September 14, 2016 by JAinVA 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DennisThornton 4,771 #4 Posted September 14, 2016 You will appreciate having a dozer blade AND a snow blower both ready for winter duty! I'd make the 14 horse my blower. While I try to do better if it has no issues it is worth $500. Then you just got to find another for the tiller! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Red144runner 658 #8 Posted September 14, 2016 I'm scheduled to pick it up Friday. My concern is that it would run the blower better than my 3/12. Even though the p/o told me that it the 3/12 threw the snow great Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
