For what it cost I prob could have gotten a beater pickup with a cheap ass plow, but you get what you pay for. I use it to clear my parking lot and so far it's doing a pretty good job. Anyone I asked was looking to get 50 to 60 bucks every time they pulled in. This will pay for its self in a season and a half, or maybe this year from the sound of the weather we have coming. Plus I get some exercise.
