I'm looking to buy a snow thrower for clearing residential driveways and side walk on a commercial basis. No electric power shovel or gas powered single stage equivalents - I see my neighbor struggle with theirs every year no thanks. For comparison my dad has an older Areins 2+2 pseudo stage 2 with a 3.5 HP engine and it is driven forward by riveted rubber treads riveted onto the augers. Actually works fairly well for light snow. It was the unit to own back in 80's.
So for my needs to be stout enough to throw the snow reasonably far, can handle heavy wet snow yet narrow enough and portable enough to be easily transported through gates and on an off my truck.
Thus far I'm lean towards the Troy Bilt Strom 1130 30" Deluxe Two-Stage Snowthrower
Any input appreciated.
I miss the old smiley selection
