I know you said nothing huge, but I have a Suburban with 7.5' western that is VERY reasonably priced! You can have it all for $2500.

look at it this way.. there is a reason the smaller vehicles aren't seen as "plow trucks". They can't handle it. and especially they don't have the weight to PUSH a large snow amount around. just food for thought. hell, we make fun of those people who want a new Trailblazer with ideas of using it as a plow truck

this is for a small lot, some parking slabs and my boss's driveway... thats it..... it needs to be small to menouver inside the fenced in area where we park our work trucks................ we have a BroncoII with a plow on it that he used for a couple years.... he just wants something nicer.. $500 takes the bronco and the plow on it

off topic, but actually earlier S-Series 4wd vehicles are great plow trucks. no, they aren't going to plow 6 feet of snow for a 100 yard parking lot, but a friend's landscaping company used 90-93 s-10 blazers exclusively for about 10 years, still do.

I have a 98 wrangler with a western suburbanite I jsut put on last year that I plow some driveways and the lot at our hair/tanning salon and it does a great job for that. problaby not the best to plow the mall parking lot but works great for what I use it for. I guess for the right price i could sell it and just pay someone to plow our lot. how much is he looking to spend?
