Just finished with 6 and 31/32" of snow here is Wisconsin.  It was very light and swirl in your face powder.  I do the  major EOD at the end of our culdesac ( Marshall, do I get extra post points for using the word culdesac?) and really like the Honda Hydrostatic Transmission.  With one hand on the shift lever I repeatedly ram the snow bank at full speed to quickly back up and do it again without having to disenguage the Drive Clutch Lever.  If anyone has a lot of forth and back* to do, I recommend the honda.                                                                *  Footnote-one must go forth before one may go back.
