Don’t be shy, sign up and come, or plan your own meetup!

Snowblower recommendation, anyone?

Buy Cheap...... buy Twice. My dad bought a Honda in 1982 and it is still running as well as the day he bought it. I’d say 2 Stage because you don’t have to push it. And the reason you truly have a snowblower makes itself apparent on the 2 days you REALLY need it! I know it will cost you, but find me a post on this forum where anyone said..... “I have too much shop space, I have too big a milling machine or I wish my tools were less powerful and of lesser quality”. Honda all the way. (If you listen quietly on a cold dark winters eve, you can hear that yard works snowblower “rusting” in someones garage).
