Thinking hard about gettin me a 12-valve

[Johnstra]

I live at 9k feet and have a lot of snow to move in winter. Right now I have a 6 1/2' Western plow in a Toyota 4x4. It does a fair job, but I really need a blower or a run out of places to push the snow. I'm thinking about getting a 12-valve CTD and putting a truck mounted snow blower on it. So I'd be buying a 12-valve CTD just use as a work truck. My other option is to try to find a skid loader and put a nice hydraulic driven blower on it. The skidster would be more versatile overall, but it would cost a little more to set it up than it would to do the truck/blower combo.



Opinions which way I oughta go? I have to admit part of the equation is that I just want a 12-valve CTD to play with.



Thanks all.
