Where I live back in the woods, I have a half mile of seasonal road to plow to get in an out of. I started with a plow, but over the years when the timber companys harvest, they doze the road and it is a couple foot lower than the terrain, so there is nowhere to push the snow. So I bought the front mounted snowblower for the Deere 790, its 5' and does the job, it throws the snow about 50'away depending on the temp etc. The problem is the snow seems to aways blow back on me, sort of like smoke around the campfire, I look like Frosty the snowman when I get done. A cab cost $2000+, so I bought some snowmobile cloths which are eons better than the Carharts, well the problem was the snow still packed on the face and neck. I used a snowmobile helment, got a heated face shield for it, wired in a receptical to plug it in the dash, Volla! I've got the answer.. this is the way to go! A cab would still be a lot nicer, but for the money this works out great.
