Snowdogg snowplows- How do they compare with Fisher, Boss & Western

Snowdogg Plows is a small family run business. They only sell Stainless steel plows & for less than the others sell their standard plows. So I bought one to see if the quality was their- Lets a take a look at them and also how to adjust your plow to save your cutting edge.

Stanley, I am 75 years old living in Florida and I thoroughly enjoyed your snow plowing videos. You had me totally convinced that I needed a new Snowdogg, but no one down here sells them! Best wishes for your continued success!

[@Dirtmonkey]

Really appreciate that Dannie and thanks for watching !!

[@ArcolaBridge]

Shows the girls in miami your sandcastle plow, cmon.

[@Badass_Rooster]

This winter absolutely sucks! this is a review I will be waiting for. Next fall I will finally upgrading my plow.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Yep the winter has been tough, thanks for watching !

[@robertreisner6119]

Been using a 7.5 ft straight blade Western Snow Plow in Alaska since 1984, got a replacement for the older one in 2009. I have cleared a medium sized parking lot that had 62 inches of wet heavy snow on it. That was a challenge , but no problems. This was with my 2010 F-350 4x4 V-10. One of six trucks that were able to work in our community the next day.

[@parkerl1215]

I feel like this needs to be revisited…nothing against the operator shown in this video…but I don’t struggle to put mine on or take it off. Less then 2 minutes to hook up.

[@rickorourke25]

Yeah, that kid obviously doesn't know what he's doing

[@bernardmozejko178]

Hi Stan, i am a landscaper from Canada. I have run Westerns, Fishers and for 3 winters i have been running a snow dogg extension winged plow. From what i have noticed it has more negatives than positives. NEGATIVE: when in transport mode it constantly bounces, the mounts on the truck itself are really low and scrape when going up steep inclines or driveways. The jack method to unhook takes more time and precision then any other mounts: minute mount, smart hitch, or boss. The adjustable lights always seem to need adjustment: either aim to high or to low. The only pros i see is the build quality. Really massive metal throughout and a good backdrag blade. To be honest i would prefer a western or fisher again. It is on a 2009 ram 2500 6.7 diesel. Thank you for your awesome videos.

[@michaelmactavish1728]

my kubota dealer planing getting into selling snow dogg plows and spreaders wich replaces blizzards

[@meadowviewlawncarellc8079]

Michael Mac Tavish actually snowex replaced blizzard plows, and they are a far more superior plow compared to snow dog.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks for the comments Bernard!

[@michaelmactavish1728]

@@meadowviewlawncarellc8079 yeah my kubota dealer gave up selling snow ex and blizzards due because its to exspensive on parts wich he didnt want customers spending money replacing parts every time wich he saving money wich is a great kubota dealer only plows he carrys is HLA and plows and wings for dump trucks and spreaders

Hello Stanley, do you have a personal relationship with our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ? The Son of God. That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. - Romans 10:9. And please ask the Lord Jesus to bless you with wisdom, knowledge, understanding, and discernment. And please ask the Lord Jesus to forgive you for all of your sins and transgressions.

[@kevinmorris2959]

Hey Stan! Love the videos keep me coming, I run a small wheel pay loader for snow removal and would love to see a video of TLB/small wheel loader/ skid steer pusher tips and tricks, loved seeing some tips scattered through some of the videos but would love a dedicated video to “specialty snow pushing equipment” not just pickup truck plows! Thanks a bunch for the content love seeing everything you guys do!

[@Dirtmonkey]

Appreciate it Kevin, thanks for watching !

[@Sourcemaster100]

Greetings from Bemidji, MN Stan. Just had a snowdogg V installed on my F150 and it is a BEAST! Imagine you're down in and around the cities area but also thank you for the in depth look at the plows. Keep the videos coming! Subbed.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thank you Anthony, I appreciate the sub, more vids to come !

[@fendert1384]

I've had a Snowdogg straight plow on my Polaris UTV for two seasons, works great same attachment process.

[@calebgettle7781]

Love my Snowex power plow (and love the down pressure that installed on it- it sure seems to cut down when you need it to), and compliments my boss drag pro in situations where things are packed down. Down pressure for the win

[@kcasey7806]

Stan I had a snowdogg and it was the worst plow ever ....electrical problems .......Ive had a BOSS for two years LOVE IT!!!!

[@Dirtmonkey]

Sorry to hear that, thanks for watching !

[@SouthMainAuto]

I use the electric grease made by Grote. It is the "brown stuff" he was talking about....

[@roadkill5333]

Stan, you may just need this for future reference, also!! Copy and save it somewhere, it may just give you a little edge in helping someone to understand, or even win an argument, if you know what I mean!

[@woodlandxwarrior]

Thanks brother. First year and you people are already starting me off right.

[@chandlerhanes5770]

Also trucklite makes a brown di electric grease it’s tyk-77 and it works really well

[@billmudd8516]

If Eric O says it's good stuff it's good stuff!

[@ads1979]

We bought one last year, after 9 years of not doing snow we got back into it. We went with the snowdogg over a western because of money and someone recommended it. Hand control is great, I agree, it comes standard with the top flaps and a cutting edge (all extra on a western). The first few falls we kept having issues with it, hydraulic fluid leaks, line bursts, even the entire light bar split off the rest of the plow and had to be re welded on. The worst part it takes at least 30 mins to out the plow on. The lights are horrible too. This year we have only had 1 issue with it, it was the ground on the battery burned out and needed replacement. We bought 2 westerns this year for our new trucks and the only 2 advantages is the controller and the back dragging. That being said we didn't purchase the cutting edge for the westerns, not sure why we didn't.

[@user-md4di6yg2p]

Whew...glad I bought a Western...

[@edwilson9243]

[@SledgeHammer43]

I love the Snow Dogg controller. The Old Diamond V had the easiest pin locking mechanism. It was a single leaver.

[@timjohnson796]

Sno dog makes my favorite salter. It has a vibrator on the side...so the salt always slides down the walls and won't get stuck. It worked perfectly! !!

[@27GillesVilleneuve27]

Hey Stan, thanks for sharing your experiences with us !! SnowDogg is owned by Buyers which is not by any means a small company ! Buyers own SAM and SAM offers oem-like parts for almost every plow brands at a fraction of the price. Buyers is a gigantic corporation ! The first generation of SnowDoggs were half-assed and comparable to second tier plow brands like Meyer, Arctic or Sno-Way. But sincerely, for the last two years, I've been quite impressed with the quality and solidness of the 2nd Gen Dogg's. I'm still a Fisher guy because the Minute Mount 2 is, in my opinion, second to none. But considering the price difference and the stainless factor, I think that Snowdogg is actually the most competitive plow on the market for the moment.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thank you !

[@LoneWolfSnowplowing]

stainless on a plow is a waste of money

[@concreteconcreteinc.8450]

I thought you were going to show us how to adjust v plows to prevent premature wear on cutting edges. Did I miss it?

[@mikecunningham3271]

Out of Ontario Canada bought a snow dog over a year ago works great Scrapes Awesome forward and back my next one will be a snow dog to

[@Dirtmonkey]

Glad its working out for you Mike !

[@ericouellette5293]

I also prefer a chain to raise the plow. My dad had the same Western plow for 20 years on his 75 f100. When he sold it still had the original cables and the pump had never been opened up on it. Not bad for a 20 yr old plow. When I bought my 96 Silverado it came with a snow way plow with a hydraulic ram that raised it. Hated it every time I went to town I had to raise it 6 7 times as it kept going down. The following summer I switched to a western pump with a chain and cable operated for the plow. Never had a problem again with it. As for me I would take a old school western any day but to each their own.

[@hillbillyrigrepairs1814]

Reoccurring problems encountered with snowdogg plows.. lights snap off, cheap hydro rams leak(right from factory), controller bad out of box, deflectors break. Saying that, I have 5 snowdogg plows and they are quality units-one has NEVER quit on a job site. Just got to iron out the small issues^^^ after you first buy one. Tips: buy extra controller and extra angle ram(you can always sell em later)

[@Gasolinegarage]

Awesome video I love the content on your channel very cool to watch all the different episodes that you put on here about snowplowing in general maintenance and how to run a business I know you don’t want a lot of fishers plows out where you are but a lot of us out here in New England run Fisher there a Maine company I know you know that.. But the minute mount two is the way to go a lot less moving parts hooks up way faster

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thank you Dan !!

[@alberttrezzi]

I purchased 5 of them with the intention of buying another 15 for my fleet. I can honestly say I will not buy another snowdogg. Parts are literally falling off. Also, I know this is a thread about their plows, but I purchased 5 of their salters as well, and I'll be putting them in the auction in October.

[@countryshaner141]

We have used the vhf on a Chevy 3500 for 5 years now and it has had no issues. It’s a great plow. I like buyers products

[@matyboy6139]

Great video, can't wait to see next year update on how it held up.. I just bought one myself for my first year of plowing, but one problem NO SNOW yet this year... Any ways a little FYI snowdogg is made by BUYERS, which has been selling aftermarket snowplow, sanded etc. Parts for years a very large company ... You think with selling all the aftermarket parts for Fisher, western, boss ,etc they should know what breaks what fails and how to fix it... I worked in a warehouse for years selling BUYERS (snowdogg) parts and plows wholesale, and your right many new updates almost every year... also not sure if it's family owned but who cares,lol... keep up on the helpful videos, and ill keep watching. Thanks

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks for watching and for the support!!

[@russellmcknight7226]

I have the straight blade snowdogg and I love it,and it,s on a Ram also.

[@stevenweller7517]

I bought a snow dog ....love it ...and I work it. Thumb of Michigan

[@daveschwartz9712]

I like the light plows. Makes it easier for the truck.

[@JR-zu9hl]

Brown dialectic. I use it almost daily on outdoor low voltage connectors to lube the fittings and prevent corrosion. Also keeps water out of the connection for the most part. I had never heard of the BROWN grease. I just found it on Amazon and ordered some made by Truck-Lite. Thanks for the info. Always learning something and I’m even watching from So Cal. Not much snow where I’m at!

[@jeremywilson8334]

I can't find it anywhere :/

[@justinellison1507]

I've had my snowdogg hd80ll for 2 seasons great plows the only issues have been from operator error! easy fixes!

[@GreenGixxer750]

I have a Snowdogg VMD plow on my truck and it's the biggest pain to get on! Need to have it perfectly lined up and perfect height to get it on. Couldn't get it on last night, just gave up. Will try again tonight. It's very tough getting it on when you aren't on a nice smooth paved surface, my driveway is full of snow and is gravel which makes it very tough. The plow works well when I can actually get it on and I am able to really stack the banks. I have 8 foot tall banks around my driveway now.

[@K0NASTuFF]

Putting a plow on or taking it off is always easier when its nice outside. Middle of the night -20, snowing, dark, not so much.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Very true Cobra Karl!

[@stevenschmitz2361]

Hey Stanley, watched all your videos on the Snow Dog Plow. I bought one put it on my Dodge. Only problem is I'm a man. I like hunting , fishing, that mount super super sucks! It doesnt come off, only 8 inches of ground clearance!, I cant clear a standing can of WD 40!, I'm so pissed. Please look into Snow Ex I feel they lead the industry and always show clearances in your videos. I would love to see some springtime videos, you drive down a muddy road with ruts or go over some rocks. I bet that mount wont be straight!

[@waltersobchak2973]

The clearance on that mount does look terrible. I'd have stress tested my seat belt multiple times or eaten my steering wheel multiple times if I had that on my truck.

[@SnowBoss]

Thanks for the video!! That hitch system would drive me to insanity. My MM2 on my fishers are IMO the best. I could have hooked and un-hooked my fisher like 20+ times in the time it took to just unhook that Dogg. Sorry, but as a more "seasoned" "older boned" vet in the business, that would be a deal killer for sure, especially doing it myself.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks for the feedback and for viewing !

[@paulaubin510]

The only thing I have ever used for electrical is Crown no drip rust proofing From a spray Can. It's great in your receiver hitches as well

[@Gantzz321]

New Brunswick Canada here, we are having the same winter, nothing for snow. Need a video on how to stay in business when you have no income from plowing.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Hope we all get snow soon Greg! Thanks for watching

[@NathanielStauber]

I use the Napa silicone grease as dielectric. From what I've read, it's almost the same thing but comes in a 6-8 oz tube

[@union-ft6bt]

I have a Snowdogg Straight plow on my truck hated it plows seems to light duty bounced around a lot you can not back drag with it . The guard across the top of the plow is made from plastic broke off first time I used it so far my favorite has been Boss plows

[@Grassology-vs1hn]

Nice video Stanley👔 I’m really thinking about getting into snow plowing so I appreciate this video. In a few years I would love to upgrade to a 1 ton truck I drive a 2011 Silverado 2wD. What truck do you recommend?

[@807tv5]

I usually hook up/disconnect my fisher in the scoop position, I find it gives a guy more room to work when hooking up.

[@cartergrant4020]

It’ll work great for the first season then after that it will be a pain in the ass. We have ran three. Our v-plow was awful. Then we had a straight blade for about 4 years but every year we had to work on it then replaced it with a new straight blade and the plow mounts snapped as we were driving

[@jayb657]

The way that attaches to the truck is horrible, antiquated even compared to the Fisher MM1's which I honestly don't mind but the Fisher MM2 is light-years ahead of Snowdogg. And about hydraulic lift cylinder failure and getting stuck, just take your Fisher into a stacking position in a snowbank and use the highway safety chain to keep plow chained up and drive away with plenty of ground clearance. Fisher put a nice little notch in the headgear for laying the chain into to attach.

[@awdken6]

Nice plow but watching the on/off I can tell I’d be extremely aggravated. Add freezing temps/snow/wind etc and it’ll really be aggravating lol I do like the controller. That does look more intuitive, the speed of the plow looks good also.

[@mswartz5349]

Planning on getting going on plowing snow next winter saw the video of comparing snow plows you had. I was thinking about boss or western but now snowdogg is on the front burner. The bite looks good. Ease of hooking up is nice but having something that performs great is better. Id rather spend all day hooking up a plow that works good vs take five minutes hooking a plow that leaves snow on the ground.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks for the comments and best of luck in your plowing business!

[@BobRossinspiredpainter]

Looking for input...I just had a 2019 VXFII installed today on my 3/4 ton and I wasnt pleased with how high (or not high) it lifts up. I already had several scrapes with reentry to public way from lots and its annoying. I was able to chain it up higher but then it didnt seem to want to go all the way down. ?? Anyway I reset it until I find good info..

[@masterkitten100]

I didn't notice a wind deflector on the top of the plow to push air into the front of the truck. Is it an option with the Snow Dog V-Plows?

[@curtdrellack8906]

Great vid Stan, thanks! Any ideas on aftermarket headlights bulbs for improved visibility? Leds or better halogens. Keep up the good fight

[@semajniffirg230]

Better halogens. LED's dont make any heat to melt ice, your headlights will ice up in any kind of storm

[@offroadnut]

Snowdogg is good for a homeowner that does his driveway and a friend or two. Fisher is a commercial grade plow that you can depend on in all conditions. I'm located in New England and most people use fisher because they are made in Maine

[@Gasolinegarage]

Awesome video I love the content on your channel very cool to watch all the different episodes that you put on here about snowplowing in general maintenance and how to run a business I know you don’t want a lot of fishers plows out where you are but a lot of us out here in New England run Fisher there a Maine company I know you know that.. But the minute mount to is leaps and bounds ahead of hooking up to a truck compared to that way way too many moving parts way too many lovers way too many pins I don’t know I’m in Fisher for me works

[@jayb657]

Absolutely agree with the shoes, never use them, unless maybe on gravel if your intending to leave 1/4-1/2 inch of snow so you don't dig up piles of gravel

[@grumpy1311]

That's pretty much only time I use shoes. But they can still dig things up if real soft ground.

[@injectorrick3700]

I just subscribed. And I'm so excited!!!!!! ....sorry, my meds just kicked in.....

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks for the subscription! Glad to have you here

[@DojoEnt]

My snow dog plow blade keeps getting stuck when I put it down to start clearing snow. It goes down but won’t come up. What could cause that, maybe hydraulic fluid but I think it’s the pins in the connector cause it works sometimes till I start having to make a lot of movement. Help please any advise/insight would be greatly appreciated!

[@CoBrAChiCKeN948]

I use Grote dialectric grease, kinda has a brown waxy look but works well.

[@reggiev5407]

I noticed you have a 2500 ram I also have a 2500 2014 model and ordered a vxf8511 the literature says the plow is to heavy for my truck the sales people say it is fine, did you have to do any suspention prep on your truck to put the plow on because the spec say they are about 200 pound heavier than the Boss or Hiniker.

[@thegreenskeep1]

I must say that the quality of Snow Dogg products has improved immensely. But when it comes to ease of hooking and unhooking a plow, Western ultra mount 2 is by far the best system.

[@hotrockzaz]

I have 12 Western ultramount 2 plows and they are fantastic and certainly some of the easiest to take on and off .... but last season I got a boss plow and that thing is super easy to take on and off solo.

[@jimwirth7392]

Watching you plow those piles my xls would push them right up on curb.

[@carson7002]

What's your 2 Best pro's and 2 Best con's about this set up? My two issues with my snow dogg are lift speed, and how low the mount sits making the approach angle too low. We scrape a lot more than I'd like to on the frame. Love the controller, stainless blade, and obviously price.

[@misteredwards321]

Hey Stan! I think it may be time to give us a longer term review on the ol snow dogg. What are your thoughts on it.

[@jaketwitchell9185]

Hey Stanley i like your plow videos and have a few questions how do you like the power of the RAM6.4 and do you think the Firestone transforce at tire's in the snow/mud??? Looking at getting a set on my truck

[@danfelack3351]

Another topic in your next plowing video, talk about some plow etiquette. If you have an expanding plow don’t drive around with the wings out to 10’. Drive with your plow angled to slim your truck profile.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Hey Stan, i just watched a video by Odell Complete Concrete on a product by Quikrete called Quikwall. It's a mortar-less fiber reinforced cement mix. I know you guys don't do a lot of concrete or cement videos but thought it was interesting for anyone in that business

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks David!

[@bwmaurice]

Wondering how that held up. Looking and a new truck and plow this season. Just limping along my old ones. I have a snowdogg vx, and a VUT for my rtv, VUT definitely didn't hold up to the commercial use. Got a company locally that wants to deal snowdoggs and not sure if they will hold up. Probably go with them just for the service are.

[@fitzsfixes]

Seems like a fairly decent plow. A few things though..The mounting and dismounting is kind of primitive. Physically pushing the head gear up, is like an old school Boss. And why are there kickstands? In V, it should sit fine on it's own. I just bought the SnowEx v. I'm going to shoot a vid of it tomorrow to compare. I'll post it tomorrow evening

[@mattyice6819]

What work boots do you recommend? I know it’s off topic but I’m in the market for a new pair.

[@wannabejeeper]

So, how did it hold up? I'm in the market... just a half ton version. Like you said, Snowdogg seems to be the best vale, but also the heaviest.

[@jackbureau4259]

nice...you should bring that to North Bay Ontario Canada brother

[@chiefcitypropertymaintenan6759]

Did you guys end up putting a after market cutting edge on one of your snow Dogg's? I thought I watched it at some point. Could have been a different plow don't remember. I need to replace mine on my vxf85 and looking for more options than stock. Thanks man I appreciate all the info!

[@6.4hemidriver44]

I only use shoe's on one of the driveways I. It's a weird blend of crush stone, asphalt & black, never seen anything quite like it. Don't want to tear it up. After that driveway the shoes come off for the rest.

[@FUBAREAGLE76]

We use the castle brand silicone dielectric compound its a little red spray can its quicker less messy and it DOES NOT FREEZE! Which the gel style grease does and causes problems

[@runningscout14]

Everyone I have spoke to who owns a Snowdogg plow absolutely hates them.

[@trackmader]

My limited plow experience was a 7.5 foot western I think on a 4.3 Chevy half ton in larger snows. It was miserable. Not enough truck. Spent much time in a bobcat pushing back... And much time with a welder cause it was old and. Rocky rough roads it was about 8 hours per event... But countless hours doing worse roads with farm equipment. Including pushing out after the plow jockeys can't hack it. I did one drift in 10 minutes that was hard and heavy that had defeated multiple v blades the 65 horse 2wd tractor beat it easy, that being said. If I was in your shoes id consider euro speced (high road gears( 35 mph )front 3pt etc) 100 horse tractors for snow work for visibility with a large front blade and gnues box on the back for stacking and box work. Quickly becoming my 2nd favorite channel. My friends at welker farms will always be number 1.

[@danfelack3351]

Trucklite has the brown di-electric grease in a pint size can.

[@jeremywilson8334]

yeah good luck finding it

[@kenirving5268]

Hey DM. Do you use plow shoes on your front plows or just float blades?

[@gmmac64]

You should really look at a SnowEx HDV Blade or SnowEx Power Plow if you want to see a well built blade that is super easy to attach/detach. Made by Douglas Dynamics who also build Fisher and Western. Been using them for 3 years now without issue.

[@kevincloonan9787]

Stan I saw some Boss back plows in that yard have you had and info on those back blades ?

[@whskythrttl]

That controller looked nuts....

[@kidnappedcoyote5644]

Way to throw out the advantage of the chain if hydraulic cylinders go out. Great video as always very informative.

[@psycokstm]

You should do a video on snoway plows too

[@ruschcreekllc1357]

Snow Dogg is a great plow for the price range. You should find a dealer that actually knows about the products they install. So may things not correct or left out in their demo. Also your new plow is missing the updates. But love the plow I ran one five years now.

[@thetruelifelover]

Would you still recommend a Snowdogg plow? I'm between getting a snowdogg or fisher.

[@eriklund784]

Difficult to do a snow plow vid in June! LOL!!! I like my Boss plow, It says BOSS!!!!

[@amberisme11]

Stan what’s the secret? At least in your videos you make snow seem so fun and easy. I’m going on my 5th year so I know I still have time to learn. But what’s the key? Is it about quantity? I feel like I’m so busy rushing to get to the next property to avoid customers pressuring me that I can’t even enjoy snow removal.

[@whiteface5741]

Truck lite and grote have the brown grease , you can get it at fleetpride in Roseville

[@moltonwolf1785]

Western dielectric grease (bought in 2017). Both blades are made by Douglas dynamics as well as Fisher so the cutting edges are the same in design. I do not know if Dogg makes their own cutting edges so run it in the real world and lets see how they do. I know western cutting edges SUCK I will be upgrading soon. I’m not a fan of Salt Dogg bad luck with several spreaders a few years ago so I can’t risk the coin on their plows at this time but I’m with you on the controller it looks awesome!

[@area51srgcofran]

Why don't you do a livestream the next time you plow to show what it's like to actually run it during the storm that's an idea

[@bnsfbandit9807]

And a good one!

[@mattyice6819]

Good idea!

[@Dirtmonkey]

That's a really good idea, I will keep that in mind !

[@2fast65]

because we dont get snow in Minnesota like we did in the past but our day is coming.

[@tcrwild8422]

That maybe a problem since it don’t snow in Minnesota anymore haha

[@Mannypac94]

I mount and Un mount mine all this winter. The first time was scary. After that it’s peasy. If you are running more plows with different brands. Then I would see why it’s hard(remembering each process). But if you are used to it. I hook up and unhook on the fly all the time.

[@woodlandxwarrior]

First season plowing period. Ran crews for shovlers and snow blowers in Massachusetts and made some good money. Now it's time to step my game up. Just got a Boss DXT 8'2" V stainless steel plow on a 2018 Ram 2500 6.2 liter hemi. Now my issue is trying to figure out how to price Residential and Commercial properties in Northern NH (White Mountain region). Any tips would be much appreciated. Per SQ/FT? Hourly? There is a company in Massachusetts that I worked with, the owner gave me some tips a while back but it was all gibberish back then. Under 2" X per square foot, over 2" under 4" X, etc. Thanks everyone. Great video.

The plow frame sets really low on the truck like really low. Stan try a fisher but fisher & western is the same plow. Wonder if snow dog now is made by boss.

[@makuta373]

so if the cylinder fails and you have no tools on you what are you lifting it with to chain it. an what are you chaining it too? im pretty sure the chaining it to answer is just using the closer to blade chain links still how is the plow blade it self being lifted with out a cylinder

Thanks for watching !

Thanks for this video. Considering this plow is $4000 less than the boss equivalent V-plow, I guess I'll order this one even if the mount system is a tad more challenging.

What's the best personal use, straight blade, plow out there for a full-sized truck? If I get a snow plow for my truck, it will probably sit in storage 355-360 days a year, so I don't want to spend big money on one.

@stan I currently have 8 Boss blades. Looking to replace 3 hinikers. My goal is to remain universal. Like this plow enough that I explore switching to Dogg? My dealer seems to love them more than Boss

[@Sara-L]

I'm curious if you'd give the MetalPless with the LiveEdge a try?

[@macclark4112]

I sold all my Boss plows and upgraded to Snow Doggies. We run 6 Snow Doggs here in Montana and once everyone is proficient we save time over the Bosses.

you spelled *downgraded wrong

[@LoneWolfSnowplowing]

@@BiggusDickus2 yeah what an idiot. I'm not a Boss guy by any means.....but "upgraded"? what a joke

I had two 6.4 crew cab 4×4 hemi's 2017 and a 2018. I have a 2018 ram big horn crew cab 4×4 6.7 CUMMINS now. Nuff said.

Did u get the weather tech floor liner for the ram yet?

I havent worked with the snowdog system, or any other, but that looks like a pain in the ass for hooking up, and disconnecting.. I could have my fathers fisher 8' HD straight blade with MM2 off in less than 3 minutes... that includes putting blocking underneath the blade (so it wont freeze to the driveway/road). it was a great system the hydraulics are fast, and responsive. the blade was heavy duty, and would scrape to bare pavement as long as teh pins were setup correctly to the height of the vehicle.
