I've seen some Kubota owners with a snowblower on the front and a blade on the 3 point. I think in some cases it's a good idea for scraping the driveway. In other cases the owner is just showing off like the one I saw the other day with ten 42lb suitcase weights on the blade. It's also a 10' long rig to turn around.
Glad you had a good time in Florida. I missed going this January. First time in 10+ years we haven't gone.

Last year I put the snow blower on the 448, and never put the belt on it. One snow that would have been nice to use on. Oh well! This year the mower is still on the 448. Could have used it to push snow with the blade, but not enough to justify the blower. I hired the neighbor kid to shovel the snow.
He stopped and asked my wife, and I told her to let him do it. I asked how much and he said $10. I told him if he did it all including the turn around, I would give him more. When he got done I gave him $25. Not sure I paid him enough but he seemed happy!
I got a lot done this past summer as far as CCI maintenance, but not nearly what I had planned. But compared to what my heath was the prior summer, I felt much better and got more done. So I guess that was enough!
