    Just north of Cincy. Been plowing for 25 plus years. Now we do a shopping mall in our area. Such peace especially at night. Pete you have the best in that plow

    Looks like you got way more snow than I do here in Central Wisconsin I got maybe an inch yesterday but just enough to use the sweeper attachment on my John Deere 455. Probably the only the second time this year to use it so now I get to enjoy watching you clear more snow

    Every single time I watch one of these Ventrac videos, I have to tell my wife this is why I need to invest in one of these... not because I actually need one, but because it literally does it all. Definitely could of used that here this last week with the 3" of ice followed by another 5-7" of snow. My cub cadet snowblower just doesnt have the weight or power to get that amount of ice on the bottom moved.

    We just got our first measurable snow/sleet here in St. Louis. And it was quite the winter storm for us. We are about every 5 years on these bigger storms. Smaller 3-5” happens a few times a year. Anyway, the point I wanted to make was that the snow plow guys around here have been absolutely horrible. Poor quality and also a lot that didn’t get plowed at all. So what’s the deal? I think it’s a combo of, people don’t wanna work and do good work, not as many plow company’s around anymore or maybe the prices have gotten out of control. I don’t know. But it wasn’t good.

      We aren’t far enough south, most all of North Carolina contractors and the state are set up for snow and ice. The last couple of years we haven’t got anything worth measuring. Before that we used to get at least 2 measurable snows that were worth plowing. I would say once you get into parts of South Carolina and definitely Georgia is when they shut down.
