Thank you all. Good suggestions. I think I am leaning towards a good quality 42 inch zero turn for mowing and a big powerful separate snow blower for winter. Many years ago I had a Craftsman snow blower and got kind of turned off by the whole idea of them. Thing weighed a ton and broke more than it worked. Will do some research and get as good a one as I can. Any recommendations on brands? Is it worth getting the treads over the tires? I saw mention of Ariens so will check them out. Just from looking online I think $3000 is more than enough to get me everything I need in a snow blower.
