Impressive video, Ken. You're right, I couldn't drive that truck, though no doubt a ride along would be fun. Glad you folks are out there for the rest of us.
 
Bruce actually it's not that difficult. There are nuances and tricks that I have learned over the years. The trucks and equipment have evolved. Daddy's girl is a very much improved truck vs. my first one. Automatic instead of manual transmission. Automatic Drop Chains. Locking rear differential. Heated mirrors. Electric windows. Joystick plow controls instead of buttons. Even the design of the hood is improved. In that heat from the engine and a valley below the windshield prevent snow from building up under the wipers. Plus it's quieter in the cab. She is a Rolls Royce compared to my first dump truck #150. That plus my additional modifications make my time plowing more comfortable. Hope my sarcasm and attempt at humor is not taken as a big ego. Most of you guys know that I absolutely don't take myself too seriously. If you are ever in my part of the world I would certainly make an attempt to give you a ride along. Though it would have to be a clandestine operation.

Pro tip for ya John try getting on E-bay.ES (Spain ebay.) Sometimes you can find deals on them. Just make sure they accept Paypal and overseas bidding.
The three Fili's I have. All came from there. And for reasonable prices. Also watch out for any that are the last ones to be made. As the QC is reported to be less than ideal. Any that are still marked Jose Monserrat Pou should be well made. If not JMP marked it's a crap shoot.
