    That thing is amazing!!! I love the LED lights, especially the LED strobes in for the taillights. I bet those people driving by were going ape sh!t when they saw an unmanned snowplow going down the sidewalk. Thanks for posting it, Larry.

              Hey Whipper,
              I saw that and what I think is strange is I got it also in an email form a non 6x6 friend. Must be a pretty widely spread email thing going around?

              Watching it slam into the snowpile I got to thinking that has to be sturdy rig. Those batteries arent light. Plus that has to be pretty hard on the electronics getting slammed around I would.

              Few things I would do different would be make a mount for the remote control and put a seat on it.

                  great machine! Time to turn it into a lawn mower soon.
                  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!!!"

                    in highschool we did something to the effect of that we took a snowblower that had tracks on it and robbed the tracks from it then we built a seal chassis out of 1/2 inch aluminum use wheel chair motors for power and 2 car batteries to run it then we set up a data link with it using a wireless internet connection we also intergrated a remote control for just screwing around with it but the eventual goal was that it was completely autonomous i graduated before i got it fully there but it was pretty close

                      awesome video but over exagerated at the end it did not make the big pile i am sure of that.

                        Well, if you wanna move a bunch of snow, you need one of these.



                        It's a 411 like my mog,(Just a modded cab to keep snow from building up on windshield) and you can turn each chute independently. Anyone have a few grand I can borrow, I wanna be able to aggrivate both my neighbors at the same time
