All for the low, low price of $7,499.00. What are you
waiting for? Go sell your car and buy one!

What's remarkable about this? Pretty small.

You've obviously never seen the snowblowers used to clear Northern roads
where very heavy snow is encountered. They replace the double-plow blades
used on dump trucks down here. They are six feet tall (not including the
chute), at least ten feet wide, and mount to the front of dump trucks.

You want to see a REAL man's snowblower, take a look at the massive
snowblowers used to clear runways at major airports. Chicago has some great
ones. Run down the runway at 50 mph, two of them run staggered to do the
entire width of a 100 foot wide runway.

Heck. I've had a Gravely for well over 20 years and I wouldn't trade it for
anything. It has a 12 HP motor, it's easy on gasoline and it throws the snow
over 50 feet. That's right - 50 feet. That to me is the Mother of All
Snowblowers. By the way, all the maintenance has consisted of changing oil
every winter season and an occasional spark plug. And this is in Western New
York where we average approximately 290 inches per year.
That to me is the Mother!!!! I have a JD 2010 which sets in the barn all
winter (resting) as a backup. Had to use it once during the Blizzard of '77.
Send a man out to do the job and not a boy!

They should provide the Honda Pilot with a PTO and sell an optional
snowblower attachment.

Here here, I agree, an old Gravely with a thrower attachment. Now that's
snow throwing.
One word of caution, watch out for anything loose under the snow, rocks,
abandoned toys, frozen fido's, because they get thrown around 50 feet as
well.

More appropriate would be the Honda Civic Hybrid.
The 1336 is a gas/electric Hybrid snowblower.
