    Growing up, my dad used to plow for the local school district when he worked Maintenance. They usef Chevys. The oldest plow truck at that time around 1995 was the 78 Chevy K20 4x4. When my dad left to take the Maintenance job at the local church camp, he ordered a plow truck, a 98 GMC K2500. I was 16 and he taught me to plow. Since then i have driven different plow trucks when I worked Maintenance. Mostly Dodge trucks. But personally I am partial to GM because I grew up.on them. The last plow truck I used before leaving Maintenance myself was a 2017 F350 service body 4x4 gas engine. Awesome video. 😊

      Once you push snow in a loader, you’ll never go back to a truck and plow. Plow trucks are inefficient. They are good if you have to get to an open up quickly but that’s honestly where the advantages stop. A Deere 244 and a metalpless will finish a lot exponentially faster. I get that if you’ve already got trucks it makes sense but in snow removal, efficiency is everything. Also another note: a loader will need a lot less maintenance in the long run.

    • @pagelservices

      As explained in the video...They are very efficient for our properties and logistics, They are making money, and we have had basically 5 push events this season. We don't get hammered with snow like Wisconsin used to years ago.

    I'm about 3 hours north of you and my boss owns a couples loaders and 580 and other machines and the big machines are for winter only, but with nobody wanting to work a lot of our machines sit and we have sub contractors with loaders and tractors. we really only use them to load salt at shop and to haul snow and push snow back these days. I mostly use my truck and some skids on sights sidewalk machines/shovel. my boss mostly goes site to site and runs ventracs on sidewalks since we dont have the man power.

    I love Western plows, I've used them since 1993. Personally I wouldn't be buying new lights for the plow. I can't believe this is your first plow that the lenses have broken, most of them do around here. I have to believe it is the cold. Your's may have lasted well because your park your trucks inside. Also I doubt you will be able to get the 3/4" nut off the underside of the light. It's a carriage bolt set in plastic, great design. I plowed from 1988-2019 but finally the stress and people's expectations got to me.

    Awesome video, if your ever in Orchard Park NY , Bills Country bring your plow truck , had 5' of snow in 3 days out here, it was fun plowing w/ my Snowdogg plows . I actually was using a 6 1/2' plow on a JK Wrangler that never got stuck. The 2 Silverados got workouts doing the parking lots. Last year we went through 7' of snow followed by 5' snow in a blizzard in Buffalo, NY which is 20 min. from my house. It's fun but can be a bitch when parts start breaking. Love the new LED lights I installed a few months ago . Halogen are cheaper , but they suck.
    Keep plowing & be safe.

    6:15 we run a bunch of losers and stare at them all summer. On the winter lease I have found the price we pay for the lease is the same we pay for a year of payments. After 3 or 4 years it’s paid off. But alot of our machines are older losers we bought cash for $30k-$40k and I have found those work the best for snow. No payments and I don’t have to bank roll them through the summer.

    That’s my problem with our mini loaders and big loaders drives me nuts watching them sit all the summer. Alternate mini loaders for loading out mulch and loam at the yard but they predominantly sit the summer. That being said these new case mini loaders are amazing for pushing snow much more efficient less hard on the trucks will still go out. Those big commercials we have we can knock them out a lot quicker with less wear and tear on the trucks. To each their own different things work for different people

    I agree with the loader comment. You really need to get a loader or 2 and you will change your tune.
    We thought like you but we don't anymore. We replaced 4 to 5 plow trucks with 2 loaders.
    I did think about your services area as well. Trucks are as much as a CAT 906 - 908, or similar compact loader especially once you put 2 plows on them.

    • @pagelservices
      @pagelservices  11 หลายเดือนก่อน
