Nice looking setup! What are your thoughts on the komatsu loaders compared to a deere or cat?

with one of your 4300's hauling the E50 can you tow it and not need a cdl?

The Komatsu's are nice machines. I really like them for plowing. They also seam to be the simplest for new operators to get used to. Which is big for plowing. They are very simple. But I feel they do lack all the creature comforts of a Cat. In my opinion a Cat has the nicest cab. I have only run one Deere, dont remember the model but I didnt like it. This company uses Komatsu, Cat, Deere, and Hyundai loaders in the winter. The machine they have the most of is the Komatsu.

How long did it take you guys to clean up after the storm was over?

Pretty much all day. I think we had it totally cleaned up by 5 or 6pm the day after

Tom,

Nice pics of the blizzard. I am an hour North of you in Maine and that was a hell of a storm. Got 36" at my house was the first time I ever saw the State and local municplaties just stop plowing! Was very interesting indeed.

Thats why I think it's funny when people get so nervous over a snow storm, like they're going to be snowed in for weeks. With all the equipment around it's cleared up in a day, even after the last blizzard in didn't take that long.
