I am ready have them lined up and ready to rock and roll!

The orange one is an Ariens .I think I bought this way back in 1990.

31/2 HORSEPOWER 2 stage .Best part is it still works!

Had to thin out my heard.I 'm down to just 3 snowblowers now.

Havent used th Ariens in about 2 years since I bought the Honda and Snapper,

but I'm going to use it tomorrow... All I ever did to the Ariens was change the belts and scraper bar.

Also cleaned the carb a few times.So I guess I got my moneys worth out of it.It handled all of the blizzards

 we had back in 1996 .I think we had one a week there for a few weeks in a row.

I was to busy working a ton of hours back then to take the time to buy a new toy.

I saw one of those on craigslist several weeks ago. Interesting and unique but it seems weak in power for a 2 stage.

It seems well built.  It got me kinda interested for the use of composite material and mixing of 2 stage in a single stage package.  Almost picked one up just for grins.  But I decided not to until I have a organized way of keeping more than 3 snowblowers.  Unfortunately, our neighborhood doesn't allow detached outdoor storage or sheds.

I had one called the Arien's METRO.  I think it was 4 hp.  Could never get it to work right so I'm glad to hear that yours is effective.

  I had one of these and it was stolen in an underground parking garage at an apt. building I was managing.  Still ticks me off!  It wasn't fantastic, but did a decent job.

2011 Ariens Pro 28; Toro 210R, older Powerlite and a generic single stage w/ Tec. engine.

God Bless America!
