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?
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.

I leave mine on and I plow my accounts before work too. On a side note I sometimes remove it after the storm is over but have it on before the next storm comes in.
If I was driving 30 mins one way I would take it off. But I have a plow truck that just plows, still on from last winter.
BOSS very easy to take off and put on.

Take it off unless you need it in the next few hours or so..
