Well, I don't know about you Scott, but we got dumped on up here. I tried to get out to work, and had to turn around -- and get towed up my driveway by the plow guy. Good thing I know the Yaris has a tow hook, lol.

I'm editing the video now! Crashy earned her snow wings this morning for sure. We had about 5 inches of extremely wet and heavy snow. She cleared my driveway in about 1/10 of the time it used to take me with my tractor and she never had to get much above idle to do so.

Here's a pic - Video is coming in a short while:

That is an absolute riot.

Scott....seriously...you are my hero. I LOVE IT! For sure it was a test...the snow doesn't get much heavier than it was today so crashy moved the weight with EASE!

all you need is a banging audio system and that would be the sickest plower ever.

OK - Here's the video. It's a little hazy because my lens fogged up a bit. The cracking sound is the freezing rain hitting the umbrella that I attached to the tripod to keep the camera dry.

After the first minute or so, I cranked the video up to 8x, so it's only about 4 minutes total.

That is a Riot Scott.

Well done to you and Crashy. Just one suggestion for the video when you speed it up you should play the Benny Hill Show theme song......

Yaris Hilton · 12-09-2009, 05:06 PM

That tune is "Yakkity Sax."

Crashy's awesome!

Hahahaha!!!

That's a good idea!

Maybe Crashy can earn her keep and do the neighbors' driveway, too.

You always seem to amaze me CTScott. I have to show this to people at The Home Depot...lol

I think the Yaris is capable of doing much more than a transport vehicle...even w/the 90 whp
