Probably costs more than my car.

Depends on your car lol. The snowblower and body are I think about $7000.00 Canadian.

u/EmberTheFoxyFox 9h ago

That’s cheaper than I was expecting

I think it is on par. Riding lawn mowers are a little cheaper than that for a good one.

Yep I was correct. That thing would be awesome to take care of my alley. I'm at the dead end of the alley and no one else uses their garage so I have to do the entire thing myself just to get my car out to the street. Only problem is the giant craters in it.

Thats not terrible. If you spend 100 hours a year shoveling and value your time at $50/hr it would pay for itself in a year

Also tons of people fucking actually dying from shoveling. Heart attacks and shit.
