It’s going to come down to the size of the riding mower - the bigger the better. I have an older Deere X500 with a blower to take care of our 150 foot driveway, which works well. If I had the storage space I’d go a bit bigger. But the storms where we get a foot or more of “New England cement” strain most anything. We also have a 24” walk behind Ariens for pathways and backup.

Plow setups are fine for smaller storms with drier snow, but once you get a pile built up its not going to move much.
