Evo snow plow option

Too lazy to get out the Honda snowblower. Thought I'd make a couple of parking spaces with the Evoplow. After I backed up she got stuck. That's a pretty good slope and I would just slide downhill. Dug out the snow behind and drove right out(before I hit my deck ).

Let's see some more snow pictures.

You wouldn't believe the difference it makes in dumb tourists pulling out in front of you. Before with the white ford I had people would pull out so bad you had to drive off the road cause no way you were going to stop. Plus they misjudge their traction for accelerating. Now, the evo can avoid em and the big yellow ford scares em too much to even think about it. I got no excuse for the yellow boat or yamaha I own .

I bought the Adventure. You know, got to stay with the rally thing. I love it. Put Superduke cams in it and got 8hp more. So far I'm up 12hp from stock. Working on building a full exhaust then going to re-map the ecm. Got to get her up to the Superduke hp level.

16x5 three piece(fit over Brembos) ws-50's 205/55 16. They rub a little in the rear. Going to 205/50's. A little smaller diameter than stock but I think it will work better with a lower cg. Ground clearance isn't an issue cause it already goes thru stuff I shouldn't. Knocked a side sill off last year.

Truckee/Tahoe gets tons and tons of snow. 2-3 feet overnight is not uncommon.

Are you in South Lake? That's the exact reason I just bought a beater.

That's like 1200 combined whp and you still cant move! At least when you all park in the driveway you don't have to shovel it though.
