Doc Posted 8 hours ago Share Posted 8 hours ago I just finished reading an old topic here on using an ATV for snow plowing, and there seemed to be a lot of concern about the ability of an ATV to move heavy snow. I have been using an ATV to plow my 1000' driveway for in excess of 30 years. The first one I used was a 2 wheel drive Yamaha in the 228 cc range, and it did all right, but there were definitely limitations. Then I moved up to a 400 cc Yamaha in 2004, and there was only one storm that made me not even take it out of the barn. Pick-up trucks couldn't even handle that one. Now after 20 years of handling all kinds of snow with a Yamaha 400, I finally bought a new one ( a Yamaha 450), and yesterday I did the driveway, and the snow was dripping wet and heavier than I have ever seen. No problem......Didn't even spin a wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
First-light Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Hey Doc what is your plow? I use my tractor with the metal skis clamped to the bucket but would rather get a plow for my quad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
