This is what it looked like after the July 4th parade in 2006.  I was a couple of years off on the new paint promise.

Nice looking WD.  Without a doubt the WD and WD45 are my favorites.

Adam,  those guys from up north can have the big snows, I'll stick  with the 4, 5 or 6" and the more moderate temperatures we have any day.  WD really looks good.  Tim

Thanks for the kind words - and I want nothing to do with "up north" snow amounts!

I used the WD to move snow yesterday.  I got home from work today and saw this.  Now, you guys may be used to your hydraulics holding for days at a time, but I'm was a little proud to see the balde still in the air 26 hours later.  It may have dropped a couple of inches, not sure if it was all the way up when I parked it.  I guess I did something right when I put the pump back together!

Looks like a postcard to me.  I think you got more snow than we did this time Adam.  We only had maybe 2-3 inches.

Looks good Adam! I hadn't seen the before pic. You did an awesome job! Hope to have my C looking that good one day.
We ended up with almost 7" of the white stuff, and a decent amount of ice to go with it. I'm ready for you northern boys to take this stuff back, it's really crampin my style here. LOL!
I didn't do it! It was a short, fat, tall, skinny guy that looked like me!

My WD got to play in the snow today.  It just didn't look quite as pretty doing it. 
Nice tractor, love the "before" pic.

Very nice! Those are calendar quality photos! As tired as I am of snow, it sure makes a pretty backdrop for the bright orange paint.
If it weren't for the last minute, I wouldn't get anything done!
