This year we added a third plow truck and decided to go with another snoway 7.5' with downpressure. We already had one snoway and one meyers. We figured the snoway was half the weight of the meyers (less wear and tear on a 1985 truck) and with the downpressure would be handy for driveways. Well...we're only doing a handful of driveways this year so the vast majority of our plowing is commercial. We added wings to our meyers and it leaves the snoways in the dust. We might have gotten another meyers except that the old E47 pump has really been a pain in the ###. About 20% of the time it won't angle or lift on the first try. Drives us nuts. But we only had enough cash to get a third plow, not a plow plus a new pump. <p>Considering the number of driveways we do, one little plow is enough. You guys with the V-plows are right. I'll never buy another straight plow. At least the new snoway has a steel blade...maybe we can retro some wings on it somehow.<br><p>----------<br>Dave in S.Ontario<br>
