[AT] O/T Meyers or Western plow

[Gene Dotson]

    Haven't seen any mention yet of the Boss snowplow. A lot of
people in my area are using them now, They have the option of a
straight blade or a "V" configuration. I haven't used one, but
the people I know who use them like them real well. One traded a
Western plow for the boss and said he likes it much better.

: I am using my second Diamond plow on the GMC one ton
: dump truck. I like the weight of it for the 800 foot gravel
: driveway we have and the fact that it has a heavy bottom trip
: blade. The bottom trip means you don't lose a bunch of snow
: when you hit a rock with the blade. Mine is an 8 1/2' blade
: and very heavy. They have an option for a Quik Lift and a
: standard lift pump - the Quik Lift being a HD pump and can be
: set to lift and drop at whatever speed you are comfortable
with.
: Made in Maine, I think Damariscotta for years, the Diamond Co
: was just bought by Myers in the last year or so. I chose the
: touch pad over the joy stick and like it just fine and have it
: mounted on the dash right in front of where my fingers are on
: the shift lever. I keep my hand on the shift lever a lot
anyhow
: and find it easy to operate that way.
