This is what I used to have to deal with up in Iowa. I actually miss it. :( This is a tiny drift compared to other storms. Driveway was about 200ft long and there's a turnaround to the left that you can't see. I've seen 7' tall drifts out there where I used to live.
My (3rd) snow blower died that year. So, I walked in the house, handed my hat and gloves to the wife and said, "Ok, it's your turn. I'm done. The shovel is in the garage." 5 days later she got 'us' this for Christmas ...
My riding mower died that past summer and the snow blower died too, and it wasn't really that much more to get the Kubota.
We just made the last payment on it last month. Love Kubota's 0% financing. It's a LOT of fun, and it's 4WD. I drove it off in to the ditch out in front of the house several times and was able to get right out. A couple times I had to use the bucket to push myself out, but man is it a blast. We don't get snow like that down here in MO. :(
