Time is money when plowing and the blizzard saves me a lot of time.

Don't be scared by moving parts these plows are very well designed and can handle anything. Like I said in my previous post get it moded in Erie by Jerre, well worth it.

Don't be fooled by a chain lift either see the debate. No advantage by having one JMO

There is actually a Blizzard Dealer in OH (i think he is in OH) that has been authorized to do the mods. I can get you his info if you want.
OH is a long way to get a plow modified, but I would like the info. Snow is mixed here in IA, can be wet or dry and when it's wet, we seem to get more. You said the Blizzard is 11'3" wide? That's what I've been looking for is width, and I have a buddy with a Boss on his dually if I need to bust open a road. This info has been great! I'm needing new tires as well, and I've been leaning real hard towards the 19.5" wheel and tire combo and think that would be the ticket for the added weight of the plow, and if I add a sander then then they would be perfect.:thumbsup
