Every once in a while we get a bit of enhancement from Sebago Lake but not on any regular basis like @1940willys Our is more like "Mountain Effects" where the storms will actually stall against the hills and just DUMP snow or rain in some areas. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The sad part is, the emissions test is only required for several counties along the border near Pittsburg, Philadelphia, Baltimore Md., Wilmington, Delaware and Trenton, NJ. I happen to be in one of these Counties 40 mile from Baltimore. I lived my first 37 years in Nebraska. Great beef if you eat that. Nice zoo, Same obese humans as everywhere. not worth a visit. NO inspection there except commercial vehicles. They are pretty particular about the dually dump truck etc etc. Over this weight big deal...Under this weight vehicle just regulatory. nonsense! I am seemingly the only person who resided there that cared about preventative maintenance. The mind can race about the things that can be on the highway. Been a first responder. Pay attention please! I moved to NC in 2013. Personal vehicle inspection seemed odd and like many things it can be exploited. I cannot be exploited. Many other wonderful folks can be. My point.. IDK where it gets cold and salty probably (question mark) a good idea to have another set of eyes on the rotten junk rolling around at speed on the roads??? AND pay attention. We all have to all the days we are here! Many are not 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I used my GT-1848 to plow the driveway, which is about 150-200 feet with a loop at the end. Started out with just Ag rears with weights, but was slipping too much so I pulled into the garage and put the chains on - much better. No pictures today, maybe I'll take a few tomorrow. I'm concerned about my hydro though. It was around 20-25* and it took at least 15-20 minutes to warm up enough to lift the plow and move forward/backward consistently. Oil level is fine, but I've never changed it and it's probably very old. I do have a spare Eaton 1100, which I'm not too worried about swapping if I need to. What is the normal warmup time for these? Took a couple of pictures - tractor resting in garage, no more snow since plowing. Next time I'm out I plan to buy some 10w-30 synthetic and do a complete oil change in the trans. If that doesn't help, I guess I'll swap the trans. Maybe after it gets a bit warmer, going down into single digits this week. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
