Leaving plow on truck during commute?

Scenario- Working an 8-5 job, approximately 30 minute commute. Handful of driveway accounts to plow.

If you clear the drives before work, or maybe after work if it is a day storm, would you leave the plow on the truck for the commute? Keep it on truck during the daily snow season? Or would that be a PIA having it on during a work commute and evening errands- grocery store, gym etc.

Leave plow home, hook up to clear snow, drop it back home...

Also the extra wear and tear on vehicle and tires for no reason... Opinions?

Take the plow off when not un use.

I leave the plows on all season. Around here we get weird weather and when we get a good storm, many times the township or state trucks are out plowing a couple days after burying entrances. Unless your truck is over heating while commuting your not going to hurt anything.

I leave mine on sometimes after a storm, however I don't commute 30 minutes a day. I have a unimount so its not exactly a piece of cake to take on or off.

Unimounts are cake. Now not as fast as ultras but Stoll easy
