To be able to use a snowblower you need to have dry snow (light and fluffy) not wet and sticky, all the time, or it will clog up. I had a 21hp tractor with chains and weights and it just didn't have the speed necessary to move a lot of snow, also took a long time. I also have an F-250 with plow which is a little big and hard to manuver in tight places. I prefer my Suzuki King Quad with a 5' plow. No chains or weights needed, but I do not let it get above 8"-10" before attacking the driveway. I do push it well off the driveway onto the lawn in anticipation of future storms. I would definetly get a winch for raising the plow, unless you want muscular arms. 3 of my neighbors also have ATV plows and they love them because its an all-around vehicle as stated.
