Pickup mounted snow-plows - any advice?

[Jpmiller]

If you get a tractor I'd opt for blower over plow

Not clear on the mounting approach - but I assume it is on the rear hitch and yeah, seems risky to me was well.

I think a Craig's list older truck with plow is probably in my future. I like the idea of a tractor however that may be more than I want to spend (more useful though)

There is a post on here called Red Neck Snowplow i did a few years back (i can find it but dont know how to paste it here with my phone)   
Cobbled this together for basically free to clear our lot, worked pretty good in a pinch, was going to add a small winch but never got around to it, just did the strap to pull it up and down.

Here's a couple of alternatives

The internet is full of ideas!!!

Perhaps an idea from the Emerald City. They should be able to adapt a prius to this.

And from our friends to the North. Just keep your stick on the ice.

Based on these videos, I may be overthinking things.  But then again, maybe not!

One thing about this is either lay in a winters supply of hot sand (premixed sand and salt) or have exhaust rerouted through the sand box to keep sand thawed

If I picked that up I would need a Mr. Plow jacket!

I like the redneck plow too-well done

Older vehicle with plow is what I have been using for the last 5 years and we get a good amount of snow since we are in a snow belt. Most people look at my setup and question it because it isn’t the big f250 but it has worked for me and I have never had an issue.  I use an older land cruiser that doubles as my woods vehicle during hunting season. It’s a 7.5ft blade for when the snow is deeper then I have extensions I can put on to widen it to make quick work of driveway. I am now am just doing my small driveway and a neighbors but a couple years I did 2 miles of plowing a time and 15-20 times each of the years.  Tractor sure would be nice to move snow banks though for when there is 2-3ft of snow on ground.
