[quote Jp!]I hated when I snowPLOWed my drive with a tractor. You gotta have a lot of weight and power to push it after you've made your initial pile on the runs.
Yeah I could never figure out how an ATV with a plow would push much snow
Most people who are really serious about it will have wheel weights, fluid filled tires,
and a few hundred pounds of suitcase weights on a bracket in back - plus chains.
a lot of the Deere guys will just leave the tiller on the back for extra weight too.
I've never seen a ATV blade that wasn't a fixed position either (no break away position)
You hit something like a curb with a fixed blade on an ATV and you will go flying
