Ok, before I get flamed, I KNOW I have to install an aftermarket, larger, stand alone aux. transmission cooler. It WILL be done, but not until I make some coin with her!

I bought this last winter and pushed it with my 1993 F250 diesel 4x4. 7600 pounds of pure American iron. Some said I was insane for pushing that little snowbear with that much truck, but you know what...I never so much as left a kink on that blade. You just got to know the limitations of your equipment.

Well, tonight I put the blade on the 2001 Explorer Sport. It's short enough that I can get turned around and not have to worry about narrow driveways, but it's still strong enough in the sense it has an actual FRAME underneath the body.

I think I'll do just fine with it again this winter, this is why I got this truck. It is my plow truck, it's main purpose is to plow snow and get me out of a jam in a snowstorm should I need a 4x4.

Since I can't attach pictures directly to the post, I will link you to my snow removal ad where you can see my truck and it's blade.
