You can keep all that snow down south. All us Canadians in SW Ontario breathed a sigh of relief when we got 25mm of rain and not 40cm of snow. Hahahaha

Hey Jay ... Nope, it belongs to the East Hartford DPW, although Glastonbury may have a similar machine. I'll check it out next time I'm there ... I'm building a home in South Glastonbury

i thought it did a great job...it struggled around 11pm when there was starting to get a coat of ice under the snow, but the trucks were sliding all over the place too
i think it did much better then a tire machine, especially pushing the piles up and pushing 10" at once
that CAT machines ride pretty smooth over asphalt...its the takeuchis, bob cats, and deeres with the pad style tracks that are rough
