Duh, do I hazard a guess. It's the one with a blower, No SRT6s in site, but spring is coming.

Both of you, I'm in Houston. It has been way to cold this winter. Snow is fine to look at ,but I don't want any.

I'd say the blower for sure, but I have been able to take my red roaster out this winter. Red rocks for sure when it comes to roasters.

A joke with Canadian content - apologies to the blondes...
Finally, a blonde joke with some Canadian content....
As a trucker stops for a red light on Hwy.11, a
Blonde catches up.. She jumps out of her car, runs up to his
Truck, and knocks on the door. The trucker lowers the
Window, and she says, "Hi, my name is Heather, and you
Are losing some of your load!"
The trucker ignores her and proceeds down the street.
When the truck stops for another red light, the girl
Catches up again. She jumps out of her car runs up and
Knocks on the door. Again, the trucker lowers the window.
As if they've never spoken, the blonde says brightly,
"Hi, my name is Heather, and you are
Losing some of your load!"
Shaking his head, the trucker ignores her again and
Continues down the street. At the third red light, the same
Thing happens again.
All out of breath, the blonde gets out of her car, runs up,
Knocks on the truck door.
The trucker lowers the window.. Again she says, "Hi, my
Name is Heather, and you are
Losing some of your load!"
When the light turns green the trucker revs up and races to
The next light When he stops this time, he hurriedly gets
Out of the truck, and runs back to the blonde. He knocks on
Her window, and as she lowers it, he says,..............
"Hi, my name is Kevin, it's winter in CANADA , and I'm driving the F**ING SAND
TRUCK.........."

Has anyone looked into turbocharging or supercharging their snowblower? Can you post a sticky? I just want to throw snow farther and go faster than my next door neighbor, PS - He has a Toro 8hp and I have an Ariens 8hp. Any advice would be appreciated.

Looks nice with the top down!

It's been a long winter in Buffalo. Another month and maybe the snow will be gone.
