I like it. I bought 2 Blizzards (810 and 8611) myself this year. I have only got to use them once so far.

Looks great on those trucks as well. Excellent. Do you find the "power" part in the plow useful or strong? I would also rather have the stripped truck like you have. It's cheaper and less stuff in the way or stuff to go wrong! Will you be lettering them? Anyway looks nice.

If you don't mind me askin'..... How much of a price difference was there between the regular and the non-powered plows you have pictured there? Which is easier to use do you think??
Oh...and one more thing. Is there much of a weight difference between regular and powered?? And the extended sides are not manual right? There is a button in the cab to extend the plow sides ?

Price on the Blizzard to a V plow is about the same.
A straight blade is about $800-$1200 less, but as we all know, time is money so effiantcy means everything.
Were I am at, being I charge by the push, I have to plow as much as I can when the winter storms do come.
The Blizzard is a heavy plow in more ways than one, weight is about 120# over a V and about 200 over a straight blade. It is built heavy duty too.
Here is the controller.

Looks sweet, Nothing gets me more excited than a new truck and plow (equipment wise)
May your winters always be white and your pockets lined with green.
Can you post a pick of the snow blade with one wing not extended I'd like to see it?
