Nice.... if you actually intend to plow I'd put a small rubber strip on the bottom of it and try to kick the plow to one side so it actually clears a path instead clogs out.

Check out what this guy did.... he's successfully plowing 2 1/2" of snow.

yea jd31, like i said in my earlier thread, i got it for about half that, so i thought what the heck ill give it a try.. and fabrimacator21, i think im going to somehow make my own cutting edge to fit on the bottom of that thing,otherwise my plow edge will be gone in no time.
Thanks for the advice!

That's awesome, thanks for posting a follow up!

How much do you want for the T haha. I like the flashing lights, adds a nice touch.

ya know jd31 i dont really know if it will sucessfully plow snow or not cause we havent gotten a significant amount of snow yet here in minnesota! ha but im hoping it will work well and if it doesnt i might just have to do some fabricating on it to make it work..

I would like more pictures and a spec list if you don't mind.

I am really curious what to do with my T-Maxx 3.3 I ordered so I am looking for some ideas. It is at the LHS but I told them to put it out, and if it sells, it sells, because now I am unsure if I want one or not. Trying to think of what I would possibly do to it.

After all these years, I just still don't know if I should buy one or not. I might just buy the one at the LHS and build it up myself, that process is much funner, and plus, I can't resist new trucks, new shiny boxes and that new truck smell haha.
