We had about 3” of snow followed by freezing rain last night. I’m happy to report that it performed great. I spun the tires a few times, but I was never stuck or wishing for much more traction. I’m a little surprised. 
Sorry, no action shots, I had to be quick to get to work on time.

Glad to hear it did well.

I was pleasantly surprised. I might try to find a set of wheel weights yet, then I would be golden. I definitely think I would have more issues if we had 6” of heavy stuff instead of just 3” of heavy stuff.

I bought a parts tractor H14XL (hydrostatic instead of a manual) to pull the motor to rebuild since the G14XL smokes a little. I may not make it a parts tractor though. It might become a little hot rod.
