That is a good deal.
Repairs can set you back the whole season if the wrong thing breaks...

Plow parts, next day.

A tranny, weeks...

I'm a one man shop. I don't have a back up truck yet. I do keep several friends in the business close at hand. I've never used them, but they would jump in an help if I had a big breakage. Same as I would help them out... What goes around comes around...

I run a 8' Fisher Minute Mount and a Fisher Speed Caster. Have been plowing for probably 15 years now. Plowing is blood money. Every year I dread when the snow starts but love the money at the end of the year. Beleive it or not the best accounts I have are Adult book stores.

I've been pushing the white shat around since I could run our old cub cadet 145 hydrostatic. I plowed commercially for 6 years and just got out of it since Im working for the old man now. Im in charge of our trailer park, company parking lots and the rest of our homes and a few relatives.... so 8 residential drives.

I put the Meyer classic II mount on my 06 so I just took the plow from my 01 and use that. Id like to step up to a Boss 8'2" in the next year or two.

The V blade would help with the parking lots as I have to push them in a corner then use the tractor and dump truck to haul away.
