Might consider retiring the old girl from manual labor. 20 year old 3rd Gen 4Runners are fetching up to $25,000 clams on Bring-A-Trailer. Side note, make sure you've checked/replaced both the radiator and lower ball joints.

She's heavily modified; Tundra brakes, Land Cruiser suspension, aux coolers, etc. She'll go anywhere and pull anything. I pulled a UPS truck out of a snowbank last year. He couldn't believe it. My neighbor's 4WD truck couldn't get up his long up hill driveway so I drove up and plowed the snow back down so he could make it. At 150k she's just getting broken in.

On her off days she hauls the Cub to shows.

I don’t have my snow removal equipment ready this year yet, but here’s some pictures from last year.

I mainly used the 125, with the 1450 ready to go if needed in the driveway. Thinking this year will be the 125 and 149 #2. For our long private road, the GMC.

Same as last year !

This is the workhorse around the place. JD 835M. 53 horsies in this one have a little better push than the 147's, and it lets the cubs sit in the warm shop all winter to ponder the work to be done next spring. 6' Denali plow, with hydraulic angle kit on the blade.
Didn't dig to find the original pic, but had this one i edited out mine and the little helpers faces on, to sell the half windshield on Craigslist prior to putting on a full windshield.
I'd put up a pic of the zero turn with a plow on it I used the first two years here, but it would draw some laughs. With 2 acres to mow, a big mower was priority 1 when we moved in, and knew the boss wouldn't let me buy two big toys right away, so the zero turn had to pull winter duty until I could get this setup.

Awesome, you've done the expert mods, looks great with the Cub in tow. I've had people come up to me in parking lots and ask if mine's for sale. At this rate I'll just be buried in it.
