i have 2 westerns and love them will never switch but it all depends on what you want straight or v personally i want a wideout i think v plows are over rated
Depends on what you are using it for really. Wideouts or Power Plows in general are damned good though.
 
i went to my western dealer on friday to see if i could trade my pro plus for a wideout they said $2100 installed with 2yr warranty. just need to make some money now it might be a mid season change to the wideout
 
I guess I will ressurect this since the mega blade from snow way has been out for a year and the new design on the Hiniker V has haf some time now.

Me, still very happy with my Hinikers. One of the contractor I deal with gave me a song and dance that his Fisher X series V is power in and out. Any truth to that??

Last year, I did have the truck side (forks) break. My dealer had it welded back together fairly quickly, figured rather have them do it incase something happens. I was able to get to the scoop plow and kept going. Here is the ,mind blowing part of that. By thetime I got to the next parking lot, there was 8" in there, as most may recall we really got hammered in NY last season. Now, the v is 9'6 and the scoop 8', V is steel, scoop is poly. I did that parking lot with 8" in it 20 minutes fast than I could with my V.

The Quick hitch2 is new this yr on Hinikers comm plows. There is no more "notch" in the forks, and they are thicker. Also offer a flared moldboard to. The new plows will not interchange with last yrs plows. I looked at the new hitch system at my dealer the a week or so ago. I like it better than my old Hiniker. Ordered a 8.5 flared V for my new 1 ton dumpussmileyflag
 
I will have to check the new hitch system out. We have a ton of bids out, but everyone tends to wait until the last minute here. Drives me nuts!!!!!

I am looking for another truck t add as a backup, hoping to find a dodge and then will probably swap the steel v to that (push plates will mount right up and then put a new flared V on the 07.

yes, the actual frame on the truck, we actually broke our second set 2 days ago, we are getting a set of forks custom fabricated this week
I had a guy do that to my last fisher plow this previous winter. He showed up pushing the plow in front of the truck with it hardly attached to the truck anymore. I just sold the last MM1 for $400.
