Kubota RTV900 Plowing Snow

[@bryanblood7063]

Pushing snow with your plow articulated either left or right on a long smooth driveway with about 13in of fluff snow is a zen like experience. Listening to the snow make that sssst noise crashing into the snow off the driveway

[@Carrotrentals]

Im with you on that

[@lancastersnowfarmer]

Thanks for sharing. I have an RTV 90O with a Curtis plow as well. I plow about 2 miles of farm lane and parking areas here in Lancaster, Pa. It's been a very versatile machine, couldn't be more pleased with it!

[@Carrotrentals]

Thanks Steve. It is really amazing how well the RTV handles the snow with 23 only horsepower!

[@lancastersnowfarmer]

+Axiom Excavator Rental 23 hp but the torque is what does the job. Last January we had 32 inches of Snow here and the kubota handled it all except for the six foot drifts. That was a little too much for her. I did take it out on the roads as our local crews had all they wanted from that storm. She did well on the open roads where you can plow at high speed.

[@Carrotrentals]

Wow, last year we had very little snow in the Hudson Valley so not much plowing. I see that BOSS makes a V plow that looks sweet but the Curtis plow does everything I need so that V plow is just a want. The heat has finally broke so looking forward to the cold snowy weather.

[@Carrotrentals]

+Steve B Thanks, agreed that these are fantastic machines for plowing

[@znovosad555]

+Axiom Excavator Rental fisher and western have a v plow now for UTVs/RTVs.

[@TheAngeryIrishman]

I use the kubota B2650 great little thing and i was wanting i go to something like this. After watching this i know what im getting next

[@Carrotrentals]

They are great machines!

[@justingroves9058]

Make sure to get some new gravel delivered in the spring. Plenty of the driveway in the yard now.

[@bendodge6502]

It moves that snow with ease. Looks fun!

[@Carrotrentals]

Thanks. I would equate it to moving snow as well as a small pick up, like a Toyota Tacoma

[@Carrotrentals]

Thanks. I think it moves snow as well as a small pick up, like a Toyota Tacoma

[@dougp5573]

That’s the most mashed potatoes I have ever seen 👍🏼🤣

[@Carrotrentals]

Sure is a lot of potatoes

[@billydarico6180]

Nice job some of these people make me laugh I’ve plowed snow for over 38 years Dump trucks and Payloaders the plow stays on the ground all times gravel or blacktop if the plow has feet on each end your just gonna grind them down anyways when the frost comes out of the ground then you’ll start diggin in here and there the joys of snow plowing! Lol!

[@Carrotrentals]

Thanks Billy. In this case smaller is better

[@AStanton1966]

That sure was a lot of snow you had to move.

[@Peter-pv8xx]

That's a beautiful area I'll bet it's as quiet as cat creeping up on it's prey, nothing like snow to silence the world especially in the country serenty at it's finest, i went to the old groasingers in the winter not to long before it closed it was almost surreal.

[@Carrotrentals]

Thanks Peter you are right this is a special area. My favorite sound is the sound of snow falling

[@gsfbffxpdhhdf7043]

My honda ripping through the snow with tracks is better. Ill plow circles around your obese kubota 😆

[@karelvanleer429]

There is something about watching somebody plow that's mesmerizing. Wish I were laid up in a nursing home rehabilitating wish I were doing all of that sucks knowing how to do it and not being able to do it used to do it with my eyes closed an expression

[@gsfbffxpdhhdf7043]

Karel Van Leer u cant drive u are all 💉 up now 😭

[@burnuts007]

Nice machine! I don’t like the size of hoppers for salt tho.

[@wesleymills5321]

I have the sam kubota and just recently go that snow plow, I got it on correctly and can make it go up and down, but can’t figure out how to move it left and right, what do you use to do that? Thanks

[@davidpowell6012]

He said he was using the dump bed hydraulics for the angle

[@sevillianc]

Beautiful area. Stock tires no chains? What does a plow set up run for the RTV? We have a 900, just curious.. also what is it like pulling an RTV on a trailer in snow (you can probably see where I’m going with this idea). We don’t get much snow but just was curious the pulling aspect on a trailer in snow.

[@Carrotrentals]

Yes stock tires no chains. Never had a traction issue. I think the plow set up from Kubota is about $1,200. I dont think pulling a trailer would be a problem. The only time I get stuck is when the frame gets hung up in the snow. Depending on the snow type, 12 inches of snow will snag on the frame and you will have to dig...

[@stevenbyars3384]

Need to set the plow correctly. Too much gravel moved off the road. It will cost plenty to fix in spring. We have a RTV-900W with a front mounted snowblower. We maintain about 4.5 miles of road and cattle herd feeder access trails in Northern Washington state for the last 10 years with this combo.

[@karelvanleer429]

Can you get a bigger plow for your quad

[@Carrotrentals]

Blizzard make a sweet V Plow. Cost $3500 so will need to plow a few more driveways

[@gsfbffxpdhhdf7043]

Axiom Excavator Rental i bought a boss v plow installed 3500 dollars. Cant wait to use it tbis year. Bought tracks for my honda pioneer

[@independentcontractor1633]

Awesome, is that the diesel model? Beautiful area by the way.

[@Carrotrentals]

Thank you. Yes it is the 3 cylinder disel model

[@independentcontractor1633]

So your opinion of the machine is good for work on a small homestead? Thank you!

[@independentcontractor1633]

I also like the diesel mule.

[@Carrotrentals]

It is much more of a work machine than a play machine but still fun. Dump bed is fantastic

[@jimbob4951]

Have fun raking all that stone back out of the yard haha

[@Carrotrentals]

Not as bad as a pick up truck

[@gsfbffxpdhhdf7043]

Thats why you get shoes for the plow you dumbass it sets the height just above the stones. But this guy is an idiot gets a baby plow thats thin sheet metal. Should of got the boss sxs plow.

[@robertwinchell297]

You have something wrong with volume or mic can’t hear you

[@ruthannwilliams6890]

nice

[@Carrotrentals]

Thanks Ruth. RTVs are great

[@karelvanleer429]

Sounds like you pop the chain you're going too fast

[@Carrotrentals]

Might be the case...Will have to listen for that this winter. Thanks

[@hoosierdaddy2468]

Axiom Excavator Rental so you had tire chains on? The traction seems to kind of struggle in the mud here so far with just stock tires. Wondering if I need some chains for the winter

[@joeh5059]

This guy doesn't know how to plow snow

[@Carrotrentals]

Agreed I was a rookie then. I do know how to have fun

[@sevillianc]

For the no pro plowers..why so? Because of the gravel or dirt and needing to raise the plow?
