I'm retired. I not going nowhere. So let it snow all it wants. I'm below the NJ snow belt. (Southern New Jersey) And we just had our 3rd snow event. And we're getting rain tomorrow.

Anyone had a chance to take their new 2019 Ranger out in the snow yet?
in SE Lower Michigan we just got our firs real snow of the year. about 7" in my area.
I have had my Ranger for now 6 years and I run snow tires every year, I have a 45 mile (both ways) commute and I have had zero issues in the snow with it.

Where I used to have 2500 Series trucks in the past - it took some time to get used to.

Someone make it stop!

Please!

I’m tired of blowing out my driveway - I have a five foot pile of snow on my lawn and I’m starting to catch up to @IdahoRanger .

Maybe the worst part is shovelling the balconies…

They require a shovel because Mrs. DukeCanBuildit won’t let me bring the snow blower through the living room and bedroom. Maybe next year, I’ll remove a few glass panels before the snow flies so I don’t have to lift it over the railing.
LOL, Duke I bring the blower through the family room to do the back deck.

You're right the snow won't stop.

Front and back decks.

:idea: You need to think outside the box. Wait until she takes a nap (if she doesn't nap spike her drink at lunch) then bring the snowblower in through the living room and do the decks. ?

Luckily Annie could care less. I have both my power washers & backpack blower stored inside in the sunroom. lol She's use to it and now just looks at me,:rolleyes: shakes her head and walks away. ?‍♀

Just get a second snow blower. Better to ask for forgiveness than permission

This. I have an electric one for the deck but it can't handle the deep or heavy snow so the Ariens goes through the house. Sometimes I put cardboard down but usually not.

Almost can't blow over the snow base.

That shed looks like it's going to cave in like smashing a beer can!

We finally got decent snow, about a foot in total, so snow banks are about 3 foot here in Portsmouth.

But this last storm was about 8 inches of snow, followed by an inch of sleet, then rain for a few hours (warm higher up but the ground was below freezing with air temps around 32°), then another 4 inches of snow. Then a day of wind gusts up to 50 mph!

The trick was to get up the first snow before the rain. Even doing that, the sleet and rain made an instant inch-thick ice layer. The snow that fell later was easy to get up but that ice ... =\

Considering putting on the tire chains and spinning out in the driveway! =p

So this isn't a picture so much of Rangers in Snow as it is a Ranger frozen to the ice! =D
