My 2007 Argo Frontier really got a workout with 3 snow falls contributing 80" of snow in 3 weeks here in Maryland. I was glad I had purchased the 81" Argo stock snowplow which really pushes a lot of snow. We live on a nasty hill with a quarter mile of icy road to negotiate to get to a county road. I would heartily recommend one of the salt spreaders that Cabelas or other retailers sell for salting as you plow. I modified mine to mount with a welded L bracket and lexan shield that keeps the salt off the ARGO and on the drieway. Attached is a pic of me on the machine. Can't imagine this winter without the Argo!

Seriously, I am sick and tired of hearing about all the snow you guys are getting south of the border!
Just kidding, I have had my tracks on for over a month and have not seen more than 3 to 4 inches of the white stuff. I live in South Eastern Ontario, across the St Lawrence river from Ogdensburg NY, and the weather is nuts this year.
I hooked up my plow when the snow got to 2 inches in the yard and plowed it into a pile just so I could get the thrill of going over the banks and dreaming of almost getting stuck.
My wife thought I was "one brick short of a load" but I kept trying until the pile was flat, so whos the crazy one now!!!!
I wonder if those choppers in Vancouver could drop some of the snow off at my house????
Any who, keep coming up with the photos and videos and who knows maybe we'll get some snow in April...
Have a good one....Ya ain't stuck til the winch cable comes out!!!

With 80" of snow, there have been times when there is nowhere to push the snow. Too bad Argo doesn't make a snow blower attachement for the front of their machine. The rubber tracks would also be helpful in the deep stuff but we get so lilttle of it, I have a hard time justifying nearly $3,000 for tracks.Comment

Go where you want, don't get stuck, keep the rubber side down.Comment

80 inches!
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways , cigar in one hand, whiskey in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a ride!!!"Comment
