Half my driveway was a dusting, half of it was drifted 10” deep. I went out and snowblowed it at 5pm ish yesterday. Made a couple passes, locked up the winch lifting the blower and snapped the winch cable. Easy fix but a PITA. Limped it through doing the rest of the drive without lifting.

I’m the only one on my street that clears their own driveway and I’d love to pass the torch but between the 3-4 companies I see my neighbors using my expectations for what quality work is isn’t on the same level.

Two stage is getting a workout this season for sure, but am now regretting getting rid of both my single stages. I miss that they clean down to the surface.

So my baby dick Honda snow blower blew up and died two weeks ago. It was old and I bought used for pennies. It lasted three winters. Started looking on FB market and found this locally. Belonged to an old man who bought for his shop and barely used. Like new for a smokin deal. Toro 724 QXE. Let it snow…

Nice pickup. I like those, like a hybrid between a full 2-stage and a single stage with a paddle that cleans down to the pavement.

I’m curious how you’ll like the drive engagement on it.
