When you want to plow snow

That's CRAZY!! *lol*

That's pretty darn impressive, but I bet that's all just new, fresh powder....none of that heavy, slushy mess or snow that has had a chance to get hard and dense. Still, really fun to watch.

Thanks for posting....I think! Am already up in the middle of the night. Now you got my gears turning! *lol*
 
I was wondering that, myself.

Used to be that most every car over there was manual transmission, and I think for the most part it still is. Either way, I surely can't see a good, long life without problems.

What impressed me also was the ATV. I know [i:0c0d34e15c]they [/i:0c0d34e15c]aren't made like a tank!
 
Haven't had much more than a dusting here in a few years. I figure that thing would be light enough the snow would just shove it to the side. I noticed they never demonstrated it in heavier snow. At least the Geo has heat so it's a step up from me.
 
I plow a lot with my 4 wheeler it has a 5 ft blade makes quick work of 6in of snow not as warm as the tractor through
 
I haven't had a snow in past 5 years. Tractor sits inside.

I wonder if old has a snow plow on his GEO.
 
I used to have a Geo Metro. Best and most economical car I ever owned. It was 19 years old when I gave it to a friend when I moved out west. He drove it for a couple of years before the body/chassis rust got so bad it couldn't hold itself together anymore.
 
I bet that would work in really deep snow-Not made for that---Tee

SV, Have you watched any of the U-Tube videos of them plowing the roads with 4WD farm tractors that have front 3pt hitch and multi function front plows plus a sand/salt spreader on the back?? It seams that across the pond, they use farm tractors for far more things than pulling planters and tillage equipment.

I drove a Geo Metro in 92 when I picked it up for my father-in-law with 18 mile on the odmetor. Drove it different times later. He gave the car to his youngest daughter and her family trashed it. Would have loved to have that car, 4 door wagon with stick. Easiest shifting stick I ever drove. Never made a 4 wheel drive in the metro, the tracker was the 4 wheel drive and mine was the proiverbial lemon.
 
i guess for light snow you don't need a $60,000 truck. (do you ever need a $60,000 truck?? ha ha )

i'll bet it is a squirely drive with it that far offset. seemed to track ok in the pictures
 
Nice to see the SMV emblem is used in Europe. Now we can drive all over Europe and not hit mail boxes, trees, power line poles, and all kinds of other immobile objects they are NOT supposed to be attached to.
 
(quoted from post at 11:40:04 01/08/19) Of course it's on a lake. Wood never work on a road where that inch of snow drifted 4' deep next to a grove of trees.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but there 'were' parts of the video where the car and the ATV were pulling on a road in the woods. No, wasn't a 4' bank of snow, and they were also feathering the snow (https://youtu.be/Yr49YnUZC3E?t=28) just like our county road plows do when they need to.

I don't know about Sweden, but there were very few trucks in Finland when I was there. Making a plow that works for a car or ATV would likely be a big thing there, especially if it'd be faster and more fuel-efficient than using a tractor. Won't get heavy snows or clear out a big drift, but looks like it can do quite a lot.....surprisingly.
 
I've got my blade on. But haven't had any snow to amount to anything for 2 or 3 yrs. Southern Il.
