Thanks for sharing both HLA 1500 videos. I’m looking at a new 1025R package, and am leaning HLA 1500 54” backdrag (w/rubber and UHMW/poly) for our combination concrete and asphalt driveway. It’s about 350’ long, with a 2.0 to 5.5° slope down to the street and berms. Any suggestions or lessons learned from your experience? I’ve only used front- and rear-mounted snowblowers, but am intrigued by the “less moving parts”, speed, efficiency, and reduced blowing snow as compared to a JD 54” QuikTatch snowblower. Thanks in advance!
We love it so far. I do sometimes wish I went with UHMW all around. I thought while back dragging it would be quieter but still makes a back drag noise and does leave black marks sometimes but I still like it over the snowblower. Way easier to clean also after using it vs snowblower. We like to heat the garage and it’s always a pain to try and get all the snow that is packed in the snowblower. With this it’s simple.

I am surprised you leave those winrows on the road. In my township you would be fined for doing that.
Yea I always go back to go along curb and everything. I do the neighbors also but always do my own stuff first.
Grasshopper snow blower vs 1025r pusher for driveway clearing
Snow pusher. JD was great but I do own a Kioti CK3520se now also.
