I know they are pricey but my wife can operate it when I’m not home and I know it will last forever so it was worth the investment for us.

I have heard plenty of good things about the Ariens as well. Plenty of folks running one ten plus years old for sure.

Yeah my wife could operate mine, but won’t. Haha. I change the oil every year. Too expensive not too.

I’ve seen that on tv. Non stop. Cape Breton Highlands get that every year too. A couple years ago didn’t all the lakes freeze.

they freeze some years when its like jan and its been like 0 average for a month. normally opposite with the snow though, when it freezes you get no lake effect, and when it warmer we normally get a ton of couple feet+ storms when the wind blows from Canada down for a couple days and its warmish 25-30 you have the most evaporation, that's when we get 6 or 8 feet. been a while though think it froze last year we had a ton of real cold days, I do remember having to clear a couple feet for thanksgiving

Snow is just starting here. Around 25 degrees. Not a lot, hopefully. Haha
Caper
Well, it’s only 1 1/2 hours since it started and we already have half of what they called for. Haha. Little snow, big snow. For the guys in the south, little snow means the snowflakes are very small and big snow is flakes are big. And usually little flakes give big amounts. We’ll see how it is today. Haha

I built this about 5 years ago,it is 24x40 but has no front. I did all the welding myself, paid for the 18"x18" footing to be poured and gravel hauled in and spread, paid someone to hang the trusses, I bought all the external tin and had help putting it up.Its not much but all I got in it is 3500.00 and a lot of sweat.

Never seen that chart but it’s accurate. My dumb ass thought spring was coming a couple weeks ago. But no! 75% of the snow pack has been in the second winter. Hopefully it f***s up the bees and skeeters!

Yeah I hear ya and it’s very cool, I’m just in a position selling one property and buying another with both of them closing in the same week, I need something immediately to move my s*** into lol. The garage I posted answers my needs perfectly.
