I'll be fine if it misses me, jedi you can have it all.
Sadly jedi doubts you get it.
Seems like the last decade we have seen less snow but more colder wind filled days/nights.
Makes the decision of buying a snowblower much harder. A shovel always works but it's a pita on the body. But we seem to not get enough snow to justify the cost of a snowblower that may get used once a season if at that.
Case in point the last 2 snow falls we got one was shovel worthy the other melted the next day. Neither required a blower.
I have two.
Big one is 6' wide, 5.5' tall and mounted to a diesel tractor. Clears the road in a few passes and barely burps on deep snow drifts off the farm fields. You don't want to be in the path of the discharge chute as it does a fine job of launching rocks and ice chunks too.
Small one gets used more. I love it. 20" wide. Battery powered, made of plastic and very light weight. Got it at HomeDepot. Highly recommended for small jobs, sidewalks, shorter driveways, etc. It is not going to THROW snow 10-12' but it moves it off my patios and cement walkways, etc

Jedi wants this one.
Jedi had the PRIMIUEM version of this one before and it was a work horse but not enough snow in our area anymore for such a beast. It was used maybe once every other year.
Still considered a good investment for the place jedi was at since the driveway was the big issue with the plowes burying the snow at the end.
In any case that is in the past.
So Jedi wanted to get this one last year.
But it was sold out at home depot's around here or they only had the floor model but NOT the battery and/or charger.
So at this point jedi has nothing but a shovel. Jedi is still unsure on the toro one. Yes it will work fine but its NOT the one jedi truly wants. However, the upkeep of the ariens is a negative since it wont get used that much and the toro has no upkeep (no fuel to keep clean, no greasing, etc) just charge battery and PUSH.

LIES!!!
jedi has been to the hammond store.
They were very nice and looked all over the store. They DO NOT have it.
They called the valpo store which system showed 2. Nope.
They called the cal city store. They only had the floor model but no battery/charger.
Suffice to say the system inventory is WRONG.
But - do they have racoons?
They (hammons store) might since they do have a small forest area next to them. Granted jedi has NOT seen one around there.
If I was going to get a snow blower it would be this one.

I'll just stick to the bucket on the tractor though
