Dwight, do you use your mule to plow snow? I spent this afternoon putting the finishing touches on a homebuilt snowplow for mine. I used a customers mule last winter with a factory 6' blade on it, and the performance was impressive.
My neighbor takes care of snow removal as needed with his turbo-diesel tractor mounted snow blower in trade for Internet Access beamed from my office.
A blade wouldn't even get close to taking care of snow removal here.
I should mention that he also blows an 8 foot wide path down to the pond when needed for ice fishing access.
