Don, we have a Honda single stage CSR2000E (4.5 hp) that has served us
well
for over 15 years. It is slow going in deep wet snow but cuts through
moderate wet to dry snow in a breeze.

You will not go wrong with the Honda.


That's what I was thinking...I like the bigger models with the tracks but
can't justify it unless I clear the whole block.
Honda motors work so well and seem quieter than most. I notice the smaller
units are 2 stroke.
