I bet there are times they wish had your snow removal equipment!
LOL Probably. They go out with graders and plow snow with those. It's not all that effective, but it's better than nothing.
I've got a plow with the shoes removed so I can drag it right on the ground.
That will tear up the pavement won't it?
The graders? Yeah.
Me? No, I'm good at it. You'll get some minimal scratching but that's gonna happen even with shoes. They're not technically removed, they're just lifted. We just refer to it as taking the shoes off, but they're higher than the bottom of the plow so they're 'removed from the situation'. So, I couldn't dig deep into the pavement too deep anyhow. But, I'm good at it. I work the remove with my right hand while also working the shifting lever with my right hand. I've got it pretty dialed in.
I do wish they'd make remote controlled shoes. There are times when that'd be handy, but mostly only if I'm plowing and going like 45 mph at the same time.
