While we are on the topic of freezing....what do you think it would cost to build something rc that would actually plow the driveway instead of me shoveling??...

I am going to guess 3k to 5k depending on size.

I think you could build something for less than $1000 that would plow up to about 3"-4" just solid mount the axles and make it about 40lbs with some firm tires with spikes.

Maybe a couple of ducted fans up front to serve as a snow blower.

I thought of that, but then it just freezes again and turns to ice.

Not if you burn it to the point of evaporation.

-20 and its -55 with windchill.

Could be worse though. Farther south in Wasilla/Palmer, they have 90-100mph winds, there's sheds tumbling through the streets and the Walmart lost its roof. Don't forget the 7.0 earthquake that happened today too. Anywhere else would be in a state of emergency, meanwhile that Walmart I still open.

I worked for Walmart as a freight guy in the back room. They do not close ever....even on the several occasions the plumbing backed up and was pushing raw sewage out in the store in front of the main entrance. Whole store smelled like a septic tank....."people" kept coming in to shop anyway.

Walmart is the waffle house of retail stores. I'm pretty sure it would take a literal zombie apocalypse to make them lock the doors.

Everytime I go south to see my people in Alabama I always hit a waffle house.

Walmart I avoid even without the sewage.....

Last Waffle House I was in was in Nashville at around 3am. There was an armed guard so big if there was trouble, I'd bet you could finish your meal before he got up!
I think there actually was a shooting there not long after that!

My girlfriend works for Walmart. They don't even close with fire alarms blaring and fire trucks lined up out front. Total disregard for safety.
