On a related note, one thing I learned is that when you keep your tractor
out
back (not up front where your driveway is), and 2 feet of snow falls with
drifts, it is damn near impossible to get the tractor out to plow any
snow.
Part of my problem, though, was I lost 1 tire chain. I don't know how
well the
tractor performs with 2 perfect tire chains, but it had a bad time pushing
any
of the snow. It was just too deep to push anywhere.
I figured, if I had my tractor up front on the driveway, *maybe* I
would've been
able to use it to plow, but I never even got it 5 feet from where it was
parked
in my backyard (under a porch roof).
