Why is everyone so concerned about the tire tracks? Who cares? They're 1/8" thick and gone as soon as the snow melts. I feel like the one complaining here, have never plowed for a living. Looks great! Thought about switching to inverted blower/ tractor. But this may have changed my mind. Very efficient!

Are the gray extensions on the wing tips an add on or stock? We just got an 8-13 plow looks the same as yours minus those little extension tips

Which model is that? Looking at one for next year and considering a Deere 244 as well. Wondering how it handles that size of blade. I saw another guy running a 1016 and says it's great other than the deepest of snowfalls where he has to run one or both wings back

This is a 2008 244J with a Metal Pless 10-16 plow. I think this is the perfect setup for this machine. I could see it having to work harder if we had a foot of heavy wet snow. However, its too easy to just put the wings back and do more wind rowing. Very simple fix during a big snow. For anything but the big heavy stuff this machine will plow with 16' all day.

It also leaves a 2ft wide strip in the middle why is that I think your angles wrong I think you have a tilted too far forward if you wanted to roll snow you can have it tilted forward in other words the front the top of the plow out bottom in you have it too far like that try to put your top of the plow in curl it into you a little bit

Those are tire tracks, not the angle of the blade. Its from driving in first and dropping the blade to backdrag. As mentioned earlier. This is fine with the HOA and we never get complaints. They are so happy to have the snow removed in a timely manor they understand there are some compromises.

Here's a suggestion - MetalPless has a back-blade attachment for the rear, you could reverse into the driveway and drop the blade before you pull out - leaving no strips behind...just use the front blade for pushing :)

Lots of you guys are concerned with the tires leaving strips on the driveways. Its a non issue for us and our customers. In Colorado, we get tons of sunshine and most storms are gone as fast as they come in. The day I shot this video, the high for the day was 3 degrees and yet the sun was out and the snow was almost completely gone by evening. A few strips of packed down snow are not really anyones concerns. I understand that some of them are in the shade and don't see sun, but they tend to melt off pretty fast too. However, I do appreciate all the good ideas as to how to avoid them. We just don't feel the need to invest (more then we already have) into something that will not leave those. And, before the 16' MP we were doing it with truck plows leaving twice as many strips. :)

If he has a back-blade and backs into the driveway, he will still get those two strips of snow packed down by the tires. He said that HOA is okay with it and no complaints. He does this for a living. Have you ever plowed snow Sara?
