Insanely brilliant, or somewhere between brilliant and insane...not sure which. Im saddened by the death of a 510, but I suppose I am happy its being used so creatively?

sorry but.. I meant 720.

It could be a stanza called the (H510).. but that's no proper 510. If it's a stanza, then noone is weeping for it. The proper 510 wasn't built past 74 or 75.

'Even the A/C works.' That way you can be nice and cool while throwing snow.

i had a similar idea last winter when i worked at a place that makes snow blowers for skid steers and 3 point tractors.. my plan was to get a 7 foot skidsteer blower and a universal skid steer mounting plate. make some brackets to put it on the front of my truck and figure out a clever way to make a pump for the hydraulics with the controls in the cab. i figured it would be pretty damn awesome...

Only bad thing being that you know someone would stick their arm in it to clear out a branch and ruin it for the rest of us.
