Toyota makes very good vehicles, even the RAV4. * It's no truck
however, not even a *proper SUV. * Most SUVs will plow snow if called
upon. *If you're happy with your wimpy little electric snow blower,
that's fine with me but it means that you don't get much real snow.


Here's a picture of "real snow" from my old home town:

Depends on the year.
If more than 6-8 inches are on the ground, I use the electric Toro
somewhat like a shovel... * skimming off the top 4 or 5 inches of snow
and then put it on the ground to finish the job.
In the winter we seem to avoid a lot of snow here in the city due to
the Atlantic Ocean's effect.
Downside... not the best place to own a snowmobile... unless you
trailer it a couple hundred miles to Cape Breton or next door to New
Brunswick.


Is this what you have Dimwitty? Technically it's not a snow blower, it's
a power shovel. A wimpy tool for a wimpy guy.
