Here is my situation. Signed the dotted line today on a BX2380 with FEL, 60" MMM, and still need to lock up the snowblower selection.
This is homeowner use, 150' newly paved asphalt driveway that is a straight shot in and then has a 30X30' landing right behind the 2 car garage. The landing has a slight incline to the garage (great for runoff).

I am leaning towards the manual rotation Landpride 51" rear mount blower (4 blade impeller) which allows me to use the FEL to backscrape the garage doors and since it is a straight shot and new, level asphalt, I figure my actual backwards blowing drive time will be under 15 minutes so I can live with the PIA sideways sitting requirement of a 3PT blower for the reduced $$$ outlay and better build of the 51" unit.
Or should I give in and spend the extra $1k+ for a front mount 50" (3 blade) or $2k for 55" (4 blade, serious "moula") unit?
Thanks
