Prepare your flame throwers; Nordic Auto Plows -car plow.

This doesn't seem like a terrible idea at all.

Until it catches a curb or big crack in the pavement and either breaks the whole thing or caves in your bumper or rips the damn hood off the car.

I like how the "push-pads" are conveniently located right in front of most vehicles airbag sensors.

Friggin thing is nearly $700!

This is the best part on the website:

Q. Will the plow set off my airbag?

A. According to HOWSTUFFWORKS, it requires the equivalent of driving your car into a brick wall at 10-15 mph to set off an airbag. We recommend driving slow and steady at 1-2 mph, so your airbags will not deploy unless you’re being reckless by ramming ice packed mounds of snow at those speeds.

They are waiting to be sued.....

I also like this:
Q.Is there a vehicle size that is recommended? I have a Prius which is a lighter car and it might not have enough power.
A.If you think about it, people use lawnmowers with snow blades attached to them for plowing driveways. Any size car will dwarf those tractors - so in this case, size doesn't matter.

It'd be cheaper to go buy 4 plastic shovels and duct tape them to your bumper.

For some reason I envision pictures appearing on this site of a fleet of those clearing a commercial lot. Then a bunch of contractors going whoa! so that's why I didn't get it.

Also the picture of the blonde with the top down on her convertible while plowing makes me laugh like a retard every time I see it. I don't know if it's the retarded smile on her face or the fact the top on that BMW is down, Maybe it's both.
