The next OUT OF STOCK item will be sump pumps, especially eastern Mass. They are going to be talking about flooding soon, and it will be bad.

I bought that Troybilt model at Lowes last winter hoping it would get me through a season or two. I've abused this machine and it hasn't missed a beat. It doesn't owe me anything considering the amount of snow it has moved.

I bet after the good review it craps the bed on this next storm!

I'll take a well maintained 30 year old Ariens over most of the machines they sell today.
