  • John Deere X380 battles though deep snow with a 44" snowblower on a very cold January day. I woke up around 6:30am to heavy lake effect snow coming in from Lake Erie. We got well over a foot by the time it had let up. As you'll see, Mother Nature put up a good fight!

    Thanks for posting. Now I'm convinced. One more Penwood 'must have' to mount on the front of the 390.

    Looks like it did a good job. I had the Cub out in that 15 inches we got last week with the blower. I just have the blade for my 1964 110 Deere

    Awesome job! That is one heck of a tractor! I still use my 1965 John Deere 110 to remove snow!

      I love this machine! It moves a ton of snow fast. Would love to see your 1965 JD. Thanks for watching!

    Got my x390... Came with chains, weights, the 54" deck and 44" blower came green, not yellow like your x380... Only thing yellow on my setup is the wheels and seat. Very nice riding machine.. I will probably get the cab yet. Still getting used to pressing yellow button to back up.

      Congrats on your purchase! I was at my local John Deere dealer a couple weeks ago and noticed attachments are now green. If you can get some video, I'd be interested in seeing it in action.

    Im in the market to purchase. Had no idea a lawn tractor was so capable with snow removal. Thanks for the vid.

    Thanks for the video... Currently looking at a new x390 54" deck and 44" blower.. Not very many videos on the x390 in snow.. But the x380 has the same engine and mostly the same setup. Looks like it has no troubles with clearing out a deep driveway.

    I have 4 -6 ft of snow on top of my 70 ft driveway, after a spring blizzard, that's deep.

    Just bought a new 350 with a blower 4 weights and chains. I do more than just my own driveway so hoping it works as good as yours! Maybe a 700 next year if I can afford it but looks like the open diff and chains does just fine. Keep the videos coming!

      I'd love to see video of your new toy in action! A 700 series would be amazing to have. Maybe one day I'll bite the bullet with something bigger. Thanks for checking out my channel. Cheers!

    Works good that set up. Nice that is all manual operation on the blower. Nice and simple.
    I’d like to see the John Deere 110’s out in the snow too. I have a 1970 John Deere 140H3 with a front mount snow thrower.
    That x380 has lots of power.

      It's a great machine, I'm very happy with it. I was hitting some pretty heavy, deep snow and it did just fine. Thanks for watching!

    X580 here in southern Erie county NY. Love the power (hydraulic) steering and lift. 3rd season. Had x530 before, for 10 years. recommend the ‘weather enclosure’ (cab).
    I will never understand why so many insists on blowing across area already cleared??? Makes no sense. Too much backing and followup time.???
    Blowing into the road?? Poor planning!

    • @Don55443

      I'm also in southern Erie county, (Eden). If you're referring to me blowing snow across one pass is because the driveway is on a slight uphill to the road. The tractor has a hard time cutting though the end of the driveway left from the county plows. I cut one path to the road so I can work downhill. Because of the house and landscaping, I can't blow snow to the left of the video - causing me to have to blow it over the path I just cut, into a large open yard. Hopefully this helps and makes sense. Thanks for your comment! Go Bills!
