Hi Guys,
I'm in the landscaping business and have been for ten years now. I've stayed away from plowing until now but in the interest of being full service I've decided to start offering plowing services. I have six trucks but only one 4x4. It's a 87 Chevy V-30 with a long wheelbase. I have a 7' wide by 12' long rack body dump on it. I service 99.9% residential customers and have two questions. First is a truck like this to long and cumbersome to do small to med. driveways with and secondly what is the best type of plow for my situation? Any info is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
P.S. I've seen a plow in one of the trade mags. that curls over and drags snow back so you can push it out from near say a garage or some other dead end. Anyone have any experience with it or know about it?
