Snowblower attachments UTV / ATV?

[badboybunny]

Thinking about getting an ATV or UTV with a snowblower for my 1/4mile gravel driveway, since my next door neighbor's moving and taking his tractor. Plows arent an option and we run out of space by season's end. Usually we get 4-5inches of snow, sometimes up to 12. Wondering if these machines have enough weight and traction to handle a front-mounted blower (with chains), and how much wear and tear it really puts on them. Thoughts?

it depends on your budget tbh. An ATV will do a solid job for 4-5 inches with chaind and a bit of weight, not sure about 12 inches though, but it might pull through. UTV is more expensive, but will be better. Have you considered a tractor?

Also, since you're using a blower, you can expect to throw stones around
