WHere's the snow?

May not work for real full scale snow removal as the shorter it is the more blade hopping and any unit needs to weigh at least 500 pounds to plow. Even if it has 4 to 6 wheel drive. Also they made 6 wheel cars many years ago before 1950 and they fast learned they had as many as 4 of the 6 wheels off the ground thus ALL your wheels need to be able to float to solve this. You also need a blade that has all the movement of a real snow plow blade on a pickup truck. Add Plow wear skids.
