I for one wish that Charlie would quit doing his "ice and snow" dance on a regular basis. Spent most of the day with the 582M and the 42" blade ramming and pushing stuff out of the way. Had no issues on traction running the loaded ags with no chains and it is a lot of fun ramming that mound of snow that is taller than the cub at full hydro. Too bad I don't have a camera to get pics of it cause I know how everyone likes pics.
