71 cheyenne at work.
Second time i had to clean up in 24 hours... Heavy wet snow... Posi is a wonderful thing...Keep in mind, sat was 50 degrees and i was raking. Enjoy the pics
The truck is like a work in progress. Every summer i do a few things to it to make it more roadworthy. This year will be brakes and axle joints.

Re: 71 cheyenne at work.
Posi is great if you know how to use it. It was tough today when plowing the neighbors driveway. Heavy snow was above the hood and with the plow angled it wanted to push me the opposite way. Not sure if a one wheel wonder would have even made it through the first time. I also have a bunch of parts in the box to give it some extra weight.

Re: 71 cheyenne at work.
I feel bad for you guys, we have beautiful weather down here right now, but it is supposed to snow again tonight, so my fingers are crossed that it will blow over and we won't get much
