Default Snow Plowing!!

anyone here use there Trucks to snow plow?? I got a BOSS 8ft 6in super duty XT with wings for a plow, i traded it on a Snow Way mega V more like mega junk the darn thing wouldnt raise and they dont have a fix for it yet, so im getting my BOSS back its like new, also going to trade my Fisher tailgate 1000 spreader for a Boss TGS 1100 has more capasity and i got a gift card for the BOSS dealer so what the heck. what do you guys got for equipment and plowing jobs?? I do alot of driveways and walmarts parking lot,dad does a huge housing development! had a guys complain that $35 was alot for his 100ft driveway so i said well ok cya next storm, we got our next storm and i plowed everyone else out and waited to about 4pm to plow his house and when i got there he was shoveling his driveway and he looked real happy! well i started plowing and he was really glad he put his shovel away and watched me plow got done rolled my window down and he handed me $40 instead of $35 he said thank you and im happy you came cause shoveling sucks!!!

My dad ran a Boss V 8.5' IIRC and 3 8' Fisher strights, but got rid of them all after I moved away and he sold his place in town. We did a few commercial lots, but mostly gas stations. The only driveways we did where our friends place that where convenient and normally only form $5-$10 but that was 5 years ago. I miss plowing that was always a good time except the one time we where at it for about 32 hrs. straight. Some times when I go back home I'll help out my buddies that plow.

The only thing a V plow has over the straight plow is the scoop positon it works good for parking lots.. put you can put wings on the straight plow and there yea go prob solved.

The Vs works a lot better for us in gas stations even over wings and we could pile higher, but that may have been more the truck.

the BOSS seems to pile high enough, but we dont really have to worry about that cause they load the snow on dump trucks and take it away

I've plowed since I was old enough to run the tractor. Started on the tractor, then Bobcat then trucks. We have a 95 Chevy Dump with a Meyers HD commercial 9' dad uses. At work we run a 95 F-205 with an 8' Western Pro, a 96 with a Snoway(Junk) and just got our new 09 F-250 last week. It will have a 8' Western Pro as well. I will never run a plow and salt spreader on a nice truck I own. Salt is the fastest killer to a truck.
