I plowed the "neighborhood" a couple times last winter. This was basically just cleaning up my street which is about a mile and a half stretch and I found, with just the normal loader bucket, it was a less than fun experience. It worked and kept my low to the ground car out of trouble and the neighbors appreciated it but it took probably 5 or more trips to do the lane and a half wide road. The spill over off the sides once the bucket fills up is probably the biggest problem, though you can push a lot of snow with a full bucket.
I thought of, but haven't tried, some kind of reinforced sheet of plywood that could hang from my forklift bar, to close the bucket up, and hopefully mitigate some of the spill over, or at least make some cleaner passes. I don't know if it'll work. I'm cheap.
