Hi this site is great wish I found it a lot sooner!!
Any ways I am hearing lots of talk about v-plows, but here where I live no one is using them just staight blades.
I plow an 18 mile stretch of loging road to our lodge and my tuck wock like mad going up and down those hiles. With my straight blade I have to keep the speed up prity high and chain all four with a 1000lbs in the back to boot. It is quite a show (all four spinging like made with the truck going sideways for 18miles). If I took it any easier the truck wouldn't move.
A v-plow sounds like it would make the job a little easer for the initial break through.
Since no one here uses them, what would be recomended they all seem to have little differences
some use a chain to lift (western) others use a pessure system to lift and lower(lobo plows)
any input on this subject would be highly greatfull!!
Thank you
