Switched from shoveling my driveway to using a snow blower this winter after 12 years of manual labor

My neighbor let me try his Toro last February during that 30 cm dump and I cleared my whole double driveway in 15 minutes instead of an hour, so I bought one the next day and now I don't know why I waited so long, has anyone else made the switch and found it worth the storage space?

That Toro really is a game changer isn't it. Made the same switch myself two years ago and I still kick myself for all those winters hunched over a shovel.

Nah, I gotta disagree. There's something about doing it by hand that keeps you connected to the property, and those electric blowers just feel like cheating. Plus you're stuck if the battery dies halfway through a big storm. I'll take sore shoulders over dead batteries any day.
