Grew up with this show and still love it to this day.

[@austinfeinberg955]

That's cool to see how they made shovels attached to dump trucks and pickup trucks too.

The Boss plow factory is right down the road from me

[@MRIDNETGUY2004]

Fisher makes excellent snow plows!

[@stegomon]

I have delivered to the Fisher plow factory in Rockland Maine

[@Prairiedrifter1]

I see Boss plows that are worth way more than the vehicle it’s mounted on

[@tyronesmith3086]

Yet they don't pay there employees shit. I used to be a welder at boss snow plow.

[@thebloxxer22]

Hahahaha I am so very happy with your username

[@phillipgarrow2297]

There are a lot of good poly plows on the market too I was kind of hesitate to buy one at first I've have a Meyer 8ft6inch plow on a F350 drw 4wd and the blade has never cracked or punctured I've plowed snow with it for years

[@2500mike]

That was great

[@ThisIsMeUK]

Call Mr. Plow, That's my name. That name again is Mr. Plow!

[@apowers98]

I did notice one thing wrong with this, they generalized all snow plows as metal, and said they can be stainless steel or carbon steel. That is incorrect - a lot of plows are being made out of polyethylene (plastic). A lot of cutting edges are still made out of metal, which is the part that comes in contact with the ground. Metal holds up better in that part, but polyethylene lasts longer as the moldboard.

Good

[@johnfaux8651]

I got recommended this because of the Snow Plow Show.

[@ianstrickland5280]

Thank you youtube

[@Sackmatters]

I’ve put installed so many western plows on trucks it’s ridiculous and the one thing I can say is that they are over priced 2-3 thousand Dollars.

[@ej_tech]

Just in time for the snow storm

Mr. Plow thats my name that name again is Mr. Plow!

[@ballistic350]

I do not miss working in fab shops like those dealing with metal sheets brake press and laser machines ..spent years in one making train parts ...now I'm relaxed in a office🤑

[@thomastrainsmore2010]

Why do they add those sticks?

[@dtimbs84]

A lot of explanations and work. When I'd just duct tape a few snow shovels onto a an old Ford truck

[@Dom-rf7wp]

And I have to pay 1000 dollars for my 4 weeler plow and they do this dam that's easy

[@ceedubbz777]

You could pay 9200 for that Fisher XLS that they showed like I did. Your’s sounds like a deal once you hear how much the large ones go for.

Hi

[@LTVoyager]

The best plows are made of poly and are red. 😁

[@rgodon7552]

LTVoyager are you referring to western?

[@LTVoyager]

r godon Yep. I am on my second poly plow and will never have a steel plow. If I had to have steel, I might consider SS, but the way that snow rolls off poly and no rust or repainting to worry about, it is the cat’s meow.

[@rgodon7552]

LTVoyager you know they’re made by the same company right? Douglas dynamics

[@LTVoyager]

r godon Yes, but different designs. Many small companies get bought up by holding companies yet retain much of what they started with. I think all plow makers should make poly plows. Poly is superior to steel in almost every way, albeit it can be a little heavier.

[@leif-ovehalonen878]

You guys should come to Northern Norway and ser how real plows are made GMI plows or maybe Saltvik or other companies that make real plows. All of the snow clearances videos I have watched from the states or Canada have been plows that is jumping and making “washing boards”

[@MrThisIsMeToo]

Nobody cares. This is America. We have states bigger than Norway. FYI Fisher, only one of many plow manufactures, makes 30 times the plows GMI does.
