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.
