i had an idea, what if blizzard came out with a plow for really big trucks like tri-axles. the plow could go from maybe 11ft to 13ft and still have the scoop position. it would be used for really big lots and would be really heavy.i just figured i'd share my idea with you guys:)

The only flaw in that design idea, which would be a godd one, is that when you get a 30,000 # triaxle behind a plow, you want a) a very stout plow, something that can really take a hit and keep going and b) from what I gather, and have seen, as few moving parts as possible.
Besides, when you have a truck like that, they are usually on roads, where a one-way plow would work most effectively. In a large parking lot, it is usually a better idea to have a large loader with a 14-16' pusher, so that you can stack all that snow in a large pile, instead of many smaller ones.
$.02 Good thinking though Meyer!

They may be coming out with one a bit bigger than the 8611 next season

Blizzard makes dozer blades so i would say a larger unit is not out of the question.

I was looking around today trying to find the plow that was posted someplace else, it's a unit very similar to the Blizzard in design, only is made for its full size trucks and loaders. I couldn't come up with it.

Steve, are you referring to this? (http://www.go-storm.com/go-storm/english/plowmaxx.html)
