Plow Choice

What would be the best plow for a 2012 Chevy Colorado ? Mainly doing driveways and condo cleanups after the event. Thanks

I've noticed a lot of people on here are partial to Boss. But what you will hear form most people first is to look at all the manufacturers and see who's dealers are closest to you. You don't want to have to drive miles away from your route to go get parts in the middle of a storm because you had a breakdown.

That sounds quite high to me.

We have a 6.5' western on an S10 which works out really well

What's the breakdown? How much is labor, freight, taxes,seems a little high to me but every area has it's own pricing. Have you tried another dealer in your area?

Suggested list from East Coast distributor

7'6" 22 series w/ down pressure $4218.00 plus freight
Deflector $189 plus install
Wireless $105 upgrade over wired control

Everybody places their own value on their time.

I see there is no freight charge,

Sno-way offers a free 4 sight upgrade though 10/19/12 so be sure to ask for it.
