Well, I just got back from the NTEA show and after all the hype about the new boss snow plow being a game changer it seemed to fall short of that. Although it is very impressive in size it wasn’t quite the game changer I expected. But I did see the new sno-way 26 R a hydraulic wing plow for the half ton truck. It was simple and to the point, it seems much more like a game changer than the DXT.
the sno way setup is a cheap copy of a blizzard no big game changer there as well the boss isnt much better either but alot of plowers say that if boss had a trip edge v plow they would switch

Cool for boss but def a let down. Was really pulling for an expandable wing plow before a trip plow....or maybe even something completely new and fresh. Damn
Looks like the snow way just becomes a box plow not expanding wings to me...not sure the point on a half ton truck you wont be able to carry that much snow anyways

If the sno-way can independently fold each wing in rather than both at the same time, then I definitely see a big benefit for half ton trucks. Simply preventing trail off (just like the PP/XLS/Wideout) will allow better productivity.
If I didn't plow after the storm a box plow or wide out style plow would definitely be on the front of my truck.
Although, driving in V mode seems to be much better for my truck - it will drop the air temp in front of the grill by 40 degree's folding the wings back compared to driving with it in straight blade mode.

It is a straight blade, or you can control one wing for trail off control, or box it, or 45 degree scoop. Very versitile.
6,874. Can only go on 4500-5500 and f-450-f-550 will not work on one ton i had them talked into it on my 350 with snow plow prep pack but realized was to much plow to push with out the weight
