It was too easy to plow the 1.5" of snow... It could easily handle a 3" snowfall

The extra weight from the bigger truck and 2 batteries in parallel with the 4wd helps a lot. It would be more difficult with a smaller 2wd ike your stampede.
Thanks!
It goes much faster when I'm not trying to record and plow at the same time. I can do the driveway in about 10 min....I only used 2500mah out of 8400mah available to do it.

That is cool, and works surprisingly well! How long does it take to do the whole drive?

That works awesome!!! I always figured those plows were kind of a joke and just for show. Who knew they actually worked!
As for the grinding noise from the plow, have you ever heard the noises a full scale truck with a plow makes? That grinding noise is nothing!

Your TXT is sick.
I'd love to see what the neighbors say when they look out their window and see a tiny truck plowing the driveway haha!

That is really cool. Granted it would probably be faster to do it with a regular snow shovel, it isn't nearly that much fun! Nice job!

Thanks for the compliments!
The weather man is saying 6-10" of snow starting today and ending tomorrow afternoon. [X(]
