What? Why didn't somebody call me to say we were doing this? Drift busting before the tear down....

Only made it to -30 here last night.

Monday I had to start the truck for the first time in a few months. I forgot to put a charger on the battery the night before (stupid). I got it started with a jump from a boat battery but the truck battery was too flat to run the plow. Luckily the battery in the convertible (no radio or clock draining it) had enough juice to run the plow - after a jump from another boat battery.

I'm not even going to try again until we get to zero or above.

Re: Pics of your truck in the snow

Living here just a few miles outside of Las Vegas but grew up in Montana, so no snow here. Used to have a lot of fun going up the gulch being pulled behind a truck on a sled. Those were the days, good times.

Re: Pics of your truck in the snow

That's a healthy snow for Prescott, Kurt. I saw where that storm dump on you guys. We had one storm pass south and that one to the west and north. What we got was gale force winds from the pressure gradient. We're about done with any decent snow here this year. But they say through the first ten days of March (at this point) will be colder than average. Never know, we've had snow in April before.

Nothing good to show this year, but before this thread passes on for the year I'll pop some pictures from winters past

Re: Pics of your truck in the snow

After plowing my driveway. Almost 40 inches here in Feb. Set a record for snowiest Feb. I know, I should show the huge piles this thing pushed up! 1000lbs in the bed, and a 1000lbs Diamond plow makes for easy cleanup.

Re: Pics of your truck in the snow

special-K: I know right? Flagstaff Snowbowl season total is over 22 feet.

A customer who lives in Phoenix, asked me to check if the County had plowed the streets to his house under construction. It's a little higher than town, and is on the north slope. I knew better than to try getting one inch farther than this, and could have got stuck if I was dumber.

Love the truck. Great useful K/20 truck picture. I used to plow with a couple K/20s and they did great. I think I have one picture with plow mounted from rear quarter shot. I need to do a Walmart photo scan session next day I'm rained or snowed out.

Dumber people could die, right? One quick "whoop" to the side with the rear end could do it.

Re: Pics of your truck in the snow

Here is my Duramax under the snow last week. Most snow in Flagtaff recorded since the 1930’s apparently. Over 3 feet recorded in town.

I remember spec'ing out a '77 Stepside at $7k (IIRC), but didn't go for it. Might have been $6k. How much was yours?

Re: Pics of your truck in the snow

My Dad bought a new '78 K10 Scottsdale SWB for $6200. It was mine for a few years too...

I bought a used '77 K10 Cheyenne in '78 right after I graduated high school, 16k miles, $5800.00. This is the truck I wish I still had.
