That's what it was made to do, push snow. My tires are 10.00 X 20 on stock Budd 20" wheels. They stand 39" tall.
4.5 to 5 mpg with a LA318 & NP540 5-speed.
I drive it weekly. Don't really need it except for the 3 days of the year we have snow/ice. But somebody has to intimidate the wimpy F350's & RAM 3500's with their sissy 8" lifts.
My 66 W500 is basically worth more as parts. These trucks arent money makers.
