I just got done mowing the grass in the backyard. Freaking green as can be. WTH, it is January. The warmer weather came and it grew.

Snow/Freezing rain here still. Said **** it and stayed inside all day. I am on the hunt to buy a good tow vehicle for Z and be able to put a plow on the front of it. Gonna start doing my own driveway as these guys are clowns and show up whenever they feel like it. The setup should pay for itself in ~40 years.

If you get a used vehicle with a snow plow. Look at the plow frame and where it bolts to the the vehicle frame. Look for cracks and repairs made. Plowing is HARD on the drivetrain. So look for problems in that area too. My brother had his own snow plowing business for a while. Plus I plowed snow at the power plant.

I plan on used truck/jeep/suv with a new plow more than likely.

Yea... that's the best plan. Get a used 3/4 ton truck with a solid front axle. Ford or Ram. Chevy's don't hold up well. And put on a snow plow.

We got something in common. I used to get plowed.
