Anyone plow snow with your machine. Got a 350 honda 4X4, a pretty long drive and live in Sault Ste. Marie. Will my 4-wheeler plow a foot or two of snow?

If the snow isn't too wet and you have space to push it you should be ok. I have a 300 with blade, with the snow we got last Dec. I could not push it, not enough weight

I have tryed plowing Honda 4x4 ,even with chains on all 4 wheels and weights the snow all ways seems to win it will push 4 to 6 inches pretty good but any more just not enough weight plenty of power just can't get it to hook up.

Thanks, I think I'll buy a snow blower for the front instead. Up here in the Soo we get 4-6 inches in August in a cold year lol. The dealer I bought it from said it would push 2' no problem. I knew he was lieing because I have plowed with a truck before and 2' is not that easy no natter what you have.

I did not know they made a snow blower for a four wheeler you are right that is your best bet ,they really work good on lawn tractors , they use them a lot here in Ohio good luck. P.S. they also work good to clear a path for ice fishing,

they make a snow blower for 4 wheelers, but they are (if I remember right) $1600 and that's without a motor, with a honda 12 hp hey come to about $2200, but supposedly there is no snow they cant throw. We got 5' of snow in 36 hours a few years ago, the national guard was called in it was great. They didn't plow our road for 8 days I was trapped in the house except for a few long walks to the beer store. The salesman said people attached bars onto the blowers to knock the snow into the path of the blower and were able to clear the snow no problem. Does OH get any snow lol?
