.Haha, yeah it was a little weird to pull into the yard in a Chevy, running joke around the shop is that im having a midlife crisis. Got rid of all my John Deere mowers and went to Exmark! Plow this year for sure, we dont do any salting really. Ive got a reciever spreader for one truck, other than that no one around here salts, nor wants salt.

The motor in it, although a little thirsty, will have very good power and will run for a long time with very little problems. I had one in a one ton and it ran and ran for years.
Im Hoping so, mainly bought it for landscaping but will be a good plower to

We have an old schwans truck, I drove it for the first time the other day, it was the same as our diesel 4500s
Could you go into a little more detail on the schwans truck and your review on them/how you chose to outfit the truck? I've been looking into them on and off for the past year but still can't find a good source for them.

Be careful of who is driving this beast if you are loaded to the max your driver had better have his CDL, because you could be over 26000 lbs. total. I know in my neck of the woods DOT has been going after the landscapers for this very thing.
