I did consider a truck, but I don't have the space to just let something sit around here. I think the tractor will do just find with some chains and weight. I'm quite a bit more inland than I used to be, so I expect more snow. Its always hard to say how much... we've gone from a good size snowfall every week to only one per year. With how crazy the weather has been (it was 49F here when I left for work this morning), theres no telling what winter will bring.
