I'll take a snowthrower any day of teh week. Plowing snow takes longer and is a total mess when you're done. The thrower creates a perfectly clean driveway.
My dad used his cub with a thrower for 25 years here in upstate NY, bought a new Deere in 94 and has used it with a single stage thrower ever since. My neighbor has a two stage newer cub and it plugs constantly with heavy wet snow, my single stage just keeps on throwing.
I swear we've blown/thrown 2ft plus of snow with our throwers and have had zero problems doing it.
