Neither, try again....clue - Hwy 26 in background

Maybe someone would want to have that BOSS plow on thier truck??

I know the crew leader/operator of the Sno-go (worked for 38 yrs for county) and he told me this am that it has broke down 2x in the last 2 weeks, last Monday it snaped off two drivetrain U-Joints, for rear drive and front power take-off. This machine is 40 +- yo and took 4 days to find parts to repair it, they costs hundreds of $$ and mechanics worked OT over weekend to get it on the road this am.

btw

The augers on the sno-go are impossible to find new or used anymore. Their welders have fabricated these. Took a welder nearly all summer to rebuild the complete auger unit, I was told.

If you search around the site I posted some pics of an Old Mack at the Westerly, RI airport that was fitted up with a Snow Go unit. Definitely some mean old snow fighting equipment......

OK, I won't be able to get the town, but I'm pretty sure it's Houghton County.
