    Hi Mark, roads still suck. Not that the DropBear doesn't overcome though.
    Although it was disapppointing how many made no effort yesterday to even attempt.

    I get that, bad here still. Hopefully they get better today. Saw several cars and a local plow truck get stuck in neighborhood. Have to let me know how that electric snow thrower works. My back is not happy.

    It works pretty well under 6 inches, got thru some bigger stuff but I just used it on our
    pad outside the garage. Our drive is gravel and about a hundred yards long.
    I just packed it down with the 4Runner. We had talked about putting a blade and winch on our Gator
    but I got sick then winter showed up outta nowhere. Probably sell some dirt bikes and maybe go that route before next winter....
    You know cause if I do that it won't snow for another 3 years.

    I’d do the same with my truck but we have a service provider that comes to the house for the kiddo. So have to make it accessible plus I’m right off a slight hill. So it helps and they suck at plowing our streets here. So true once you buy something then don’t need it for a few years too.

    I bought a big dual stage and I’ve used it maybe a dozen times in the last 3 years. Half of those times probably weren’t even necessary.

    I wish I had one of those snow blowers when I about gave myself a stroke shoveling my driveway. They say round is a shape, but it's not in-shape. Yesterday I went to shovel in front of the elderly couples house in my cul-de-sac because I could tell they wouldn't be able to get out and as I finished up a 10x10 section the snow plow finally came to our neighborhood....

    Our city said the reason it took so long to plow the neighborhoods was because we don't pay enough taxes. Then somehow funded a bunch of private companies to plow the neighborhoods and they did a better job than the city did last year...

    See we were told after this $2 million pay study that we were going to get 15% raises to bring us closer to what private companies make. Then they told us we weren't getting raises. Then they hired a bunch of private companies to plow neighborhoods. All these private companies went in and out of these neighborhoods and turned in the sheets saying they plowed them. Then we got about 200 complaints an hour for a full day saying neighborhoods weren't done. Send County vehicles in and it turns out the plow companies did Jack shit while making three times what we do.

    Saying that we're pissed is a bit of an understatement.

    Sounds like you should work for the private company and make the big bucks while doing no work

    Idk man..... The fact that they had Vince doing a better job than these contractors is pathetic. (Vince Is the kid who got his regular driver's license 2 months before starting his CDL training and he flipped a dump truck over the summer. He's also damaged several other trucks and then got stuck in a snow drift while leaving the yard this morning.)
