This is the extended version of the December 17, 2020 snow removal in Northeast Pennsylvania.
We're not a commercial snow-removal operation, just plowing our own properties, and helping out the occasional neighbor.
The truck is a 1997 K2500 Chevy, that has served us well. This is our 9th winter using it.
Equipment:
Chevrolet Silverado K2500 (1997, V8 5.7l gas engine), with traditional steel link snow chains (not the best, but they work fine for this, and better than NO chains
FISHER Minute Mount (v1!) Snow Plow
Some bags of lime and fertilizer in the back of the truck for weight
Honda HSS928AT Snow Blower
(Northeast Pennsylvania, December 17, 2020)

Why do people wait till the storm is over before plowing? Plow with the storm, not after. Saves your equipment. Lucky it wasn't the wet stuff.

Ha! It's not that 'people' wait until the storm is over - I have hours of video from earlier this year plowing DURING the storm. The problem is: the video looks horrible! 😁 I can upload some 'storm plowing' footage; but it won't be nice to watch; the camera is inside the truck to protect it (a dashcam), so visibility is pretty poor. Just doesn't look very good. I plow during and after the snow storms; it all depends on time-of-day & how much snow comes down.

Not practical in your operation as you got lot commuting but for the farmer or if you have a site truck and stays on property its a very good advantage to have, not because you may think you wont get stuck but to add grip and bite saves transmission, spinning drive line components, but with like everything else if not adult like and experienced chains will do alot of harm to your vehicle too if not properly driven and checked occasionally I prefere the V bar

@@class8garage308 Yeah, I only use the chains a few times a year (some years not at all). Mostly just not needed, like 'Paul Wagner' above mentions. I now have a complete set of 4 studded winter tires & rims that go on in December and come off in early April each year. Chains are still great to have though, especially when having to negotiate heavily snow covered roads that have either snow drifts or county plow truck mounds, and hills of course. V-bar chains are GREAT, and I had those before (although not for this truck). The DEFLECTOR is something I should invest in though; that's definitely good advice!

Usually do; this time there was too much snow for that; i.e. the plow even in its lifted position didn't clear the top of the snow, so it would have pushed the snow into the garage door, and/or bunched too much snow up behind the plow. But yeah, that's exactly what I do normally.

@@OSDCrusher We only plow our own property. A 9ft wide plow (instead of this 8ft Fisher) would save me some minutes plowing every time it snows. Over the course of a winter I might save a couple of hours, if that. Hardly seems worth spending money on more/other equipment. Now, if I was doing this commercially --- newer truck, newer & bigger plow = HECK YEAH!! 😃 👍
