Add one vote for Blizzaks here!! The WS-60's are handling this stuff like crazy!! :D

speaking of blizzaks. I wanna go get some today or tomorrow.. which ones do you guys reccomend? I gotta make it over the pass to santa cruz for the weekend..

I have used the LM-25's and the WS-60's. I prefer the WS-60's as they are more aggressive in the snow and seem to stop better on ice since they are a "Studless Ice & Snow", whereas the LM-25's are "Performance Winter" and give up a little ice and snow traction for better handling in the dry although I don't think it is that huge of a difference.

If you have dedicated Winters, you might as well go for the more aggressive ones, but it's your call. The Wintersport 3D's are not very aggressive for snow ice, just a little better than all seasons so I can just leave them on all Winter with no downside. Just ask yourself how much driving you do in the snow. If I lived in Tahoe, I'd go more aggressive.

Nothing like being lowered in the snow.

Oh yah, I plowed through some deep snow this morning. My grill and wheels are all packed full.

Oh ya, I was plowing quite a bit. I might need to raise it up some, since this winter is supposed to be pretty big.

Yeah, I heard my radiator hissing the morning when I got out. I think I packed too much snow up in there and was blocking airflow.

You know it's a good storm when you have snow coming up over your hood ;) :)

Took 3 hours to clear my large driveway and it keeps coming down. My cheapo snow blower helps, but it is a crappy 1 stage, so it sucks and has to be pushed/pulled, no assist. Any lake people ever see a deal on a tracked or big wheeled 2 stage, let me know.

I'm just glad I cleared the 4-6" last night, or it would have been too much for my blower.

I was watching my temp gauge and it didn't raise above normal. Fortunately only the lower grill got packed full. The one above the bumper was only partially blocked.

I am not looking forward to clearing my driveway in the dark tonight. I'll probably just throw some salt on it and do a partial dig tomorrow morning in lieu of my morning workout.

There's no such thing as a "good deal" on a used snow blower on the 1st day of heavy snowfall of the year.

Unless you consider 200% markup a "good deal" because the alternative is not getting out of your driveway for two weeks.

I know, I was talking about in the spring/summer or if they know somebody moving to warmer climates.

My 1 stage will probably survive the rest of the season, it is just marginally less effort/time than shoveling, but at least it doesn't kill your back.

Holy crap, it's supposed to be 0 degrees F. tomorrow night in Stead. Tonight is a toasty 4...

Is there really a law that you have to clear the sidewalk in front of your house?

Yes, it's to help out the mailman. But you only have to clear one shovel width to meet the law. No big deal.

We have locking cluster mailboxes in my neighborhood. Hmm.

You can do eet!

We got over 2 feet here. I'm going to Alpine tomorrow.

Blizzack Revo 1 here. They aren't performance, but they are leaps and bounds better than the Dunlop M3's I used to have.

Doing it blind is extremely impressive.

Something something yellow snow

Tyson, got any pics of the EvO when we lifted the crap out of it two winters ago? Win. ;)
