Yeah, was out today with the Ariens. Heavy wet snow about 6-8 inches.
Baby is getting tired, can’t throw too far anymore, engine blows some oil, everything is worn.
Hell, 45 years+ of service, doesn’t owe me a thing. I was about 11 when my dad started letting me use it under his supervision of course.
Pretty wild.
I was thinking about buying a Honda 9/28 track drive snow blower. The first 100 feet of my driveway is about twenty degrees. The total is over 150 feet. They are available on Craigslist for $900-1200. I have heard they are the best machine you can buy today. Nothing made today has the metal gauge thickness like the old machines. My other Honda machines do not seem to have the issues with the fuel like the Briggs and Tecumseh engines, carbs do.
There is a one in southern VT advertised for $1200 that the guy says has about 12 hours on it. It looks brand new in the pictures. They are $2500+ retail New. I made him an offer a couple weeks back for $900. He never replied.
Any opinions?
