You named your Tractor? Are you CRAZY?? My tuck could plow better than that pos!

@Swifty7897 While the tractor is a POS, I doubt that.

@ilikehairytoast a truck weighing LESS than half what this machine weighs couldn't push nothing this could.

For better results, try removing the outer sets of tires. Floatation is exactly what you don't want while plowing snow. The added tires don't do what most think as adding more bite, they actually keep the tractor up on the soft snow more causing more tire spinning.

We seriously put less than 10 hours a year on this beast, it pushes the snow and goes back in the shed.

The thing about people like "skioorevman" is they're never around when you need them. They only show up the work is done to tell you how great they WOULD have been.

angle the blade and it will help make that first break through

im sorry but even from a johndeere fan ive gotta say that was ridiculous i need to get some wheel wieghts for my jd 520 and could have done that easier with a back blade

@Swifty7897 I have plowed snow with everything out there save a railroad snow blower. You couldn't even begin to get done in a day what he did in 2:47. By the way don't get behind one of these if they back up as they will about flaten your little "tuck". Could you drive over this piece of iron? Pickups have speed and the ability to transport faster, but in this depth of snow, you will be staying home.

@ilikehairytoast i bet if it had a v blade it would have blasted through in one swipe

@Swifty7897 that is some deep snow,its doing a great job.it would be spring time before you could shovel that out,and youed be all day with a little pickup truck.thats at least a 100 hp tractor or more.great video

@Swifty7897 hahaha i would like to see you try. you would touch the snow bank an spin out. this tractor is pos. a 9320 would easly do this

[TheJackassKidsGang]

great job, great machine, no "truck" could have done that. saved about 2 days of shoveling by hand. go john deere!
