I love my OLD Fisher! this thing is the old hydraulic system, and it works great. When my truck got stuck the other night( my fault not the plow) my brother in law came up with his truck to pull me out. well that didn't work, so I called a wrecker. while waiting for the towguy, I hopped into my brother in laws truck with him and did two other drives in that same area.
He has a Meyer electo lift. That plow is so unresponsive its criminal. The toggle switch worked sometimes, other times it didn't. You literally had to hold the plug in connector on to the toggle switch connector while operating the toggle switch.
And this was a new toggle and plug. Even my brother in law said he was considering swicthing the plow over to an older Fisher.
I realize that everything has a designed in weak link, just seems to me that the newer plows are getting designed just a tad too weak in spots. Just so you know, this Fisher plow I own was bought new about 10 years ago by a friend of mine. He sold it to me and the cutting edge wasn't even worn into a decent attack angle. This plow is now on its fourth truck. And we have plowed a lot of places over the last ten years. The only thing that I have replaced in the cutting edge and the sno-foil.
Yes I have a snow foil, I love it. Wouldn't plow without it.
I find that it stacks fine, contrary to what others might say. I will have to replace the cutting edge again very soon. I have worn it down to a nub, but I should be able to finish this season with it. So In the spring I can blast the plow, paint it, and finally install a U edge.
This way I will be all set for next season!
