What kind you got? Size? Pros and cons? I have a fairly long driveway.  I'm not about to spend thousands of dollars for a plow at this time.

Bigger is always better especially if you have a huge driveway.

Yes, 200 feet long. I will find out what I'm in for when the 1st storm hits.

For what it's worth, when I lived in Buffalo most people had Toros. They know a thing or two about snow up there. Be warned though... some snow blowers can get pretty pricey ($1000-$2000), and for a 200 foot driveway you'll probably want one of the heaver duty models with push assist.

I have a Troy Built Storm 2860. I like the airless tires and hand warmers. It throws the snow easily during some of the heavy storms we get from time to time and chews through the twice plowed snow left behind from the township drivers.  It’s a medium priced blower I bought at Lowe’s. I’ve lived in my house for 26 years and it’s my second machine, the first was a sears product. The only “brands” I would recommend are Honda and Poulon but they are expensive and in my mind, they all break down eventually. That said, if you maintain your machine every year, it will start up every winter without the price of the big brands. Good luck.

I had a 300 foot driveway (recently downsized and moved to a 55 and older community), I had a Honda with tracks cleared everything we ever for in Berks cou ty for over 25 years.

Note: For 3” and u dear I used a Manplow,  best investment I ever made for small snowstorms.
