Casper Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 I want a snowblower, but nobody around has any left. Go figure. If any of you know of a decent one for sale somewhere, let me know. I'm hoping to get a 2 stage, 5HP+, 22"+, etc in decent shape. I'm willing to buy a new one if anyone knows of anywhere with them in stock. Used works too. Whatever. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been trying to decide between a snowblower or a quad with a plow since last winter. I hate shoveling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yotaman88210 Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 Not sure how many stages she dances on, or how many hp she is... but im sure she is at least 22" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad324 Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 I'll check with my grandpa to see if he wants to get rid of his. Its 20+ years old but it worked well last winter when I used it a few times. We got him a plow service since I am much busier with work and other things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayjie15 Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 Have your wife/girl friend shovel it. Much cheaper up front but costs but more money in maintenance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cdubyah Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 The old man has had his Yard Man for 12 years or something. That thing is a tank. He will cut through the shit that the city won't even touch. can't really tell ya what model, or if they make a machine like it today though.Might I suggest trying to find one of those.

Tpoppa Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 5 hp dual stage snow blowers are garbage unless they have multiple forward gears. You're better off with one of the nicer single stage blowers like Toro or Honda.With only 5 hp on a dual stage, you'll need to gear down to the lowest forward gear in anything over 6" of snow or it will bog down.

John Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 we dont get enough snow in columbus to justify a snowblower. unless you live in the cut and your driveway is half a mile long or something. tuck in your string and start shoveling like a real man.
