Greetings All,

I own a Toro single stage blower and quite frankly, it's good to do tight areas such as walkways as long as the snow is not too deep or heavy. That is what I bought it for, to be able to lift it out the back of my truck with throughing out my back. Like most contractors in N.E., you swing a hammer in the good weather and push snow in the bad weather.

It has what they call a Power Curve that is basicaly two curved scoops made out of the same material the make fan belts out of.

Well, I got rid of the old truck and did not get a plow for the new one. The Power Curve is now doing a double wide driveway about 80' long. It is clearly over it's head.

It clogs on a regular basis and I find myself ramming back and forth to clear an area. It's to the point where the wife has told me to buy a new two stage thrower.

I have been looking at another Toro because I have had no trouble with it as far as running is concerned. I went to their website at www.Toro.com and looked some over. It's a pretty good site and they do give you the MSRP.(I'm trying to stay below a grand)

So she might want to check that out as well.

I looked at the MTD site where they list Troy-Built, Yikes I could go visit Tomh for that money and maybe eat a citrus.

Best regards,
Jason
