Chains do make the difference: When I was running the blower today 
putting chains on the wheels allowed the tractor to push the blower into 
anything, at any angle. I have a steep driveway, without chains it will 
get about halfway up. With it goes everywhere.

Chains also allow you to stay in L, where the power is.

If you have a lot of snow, the blower is the way to go. It does chuck 
the snow a good distance and I have handled 20 inches so far.
