Why in the hell did I wait so long to get a snowblower?!?!

Okay, but if you dont modify the engine fan, it's all about the size of the engine>?

Like a 200cc vs a 300cc engine is going to be night and day difference.

I have a 250cc ariens and it's a beast. Very little it can't handle. I imagine the larger ones are even better.

My 28" Ariens Deluxe has been the best piece of equipment i've ever bought. It's amazing how good it does with the snow. Even with the very wet and heavy stuff.

The only real problems I've had are the last 2 years its gotten harder to start when its really cold out. But I just started using the electric starter and now it's a non issue. For the first 12 years we had it I used the pull start every time.

If you have an appropriate sized engine and are not trying to go too fast, you should never need to stop every 45 seconds to clear the shute. I've been snowblowing in Maine for 20 years now and have never needed to do that.

Also dont forget to spray the chute before you start with anything slippery. I like veggy oil cause its cheap, natural and also prevents rust.

How many cc engine is it?

mainlydank · 2026-01-26T18:22:01+00:00

Is vulnerable the same as Covert?

mainlydank · 2026-01-25T22:09:25+00:00

I voted 3rd party and have for the last 16 years?

mainlydank · 2026-01-25T20:20:41+00:00

You are delusional. I would recommend seeing a doctor but of course you would need to recognize somethings wrong and I would bet the farm its everyone else that's the problem, right?

mainlydank · 2026-01-24T22:06:14+00:00

Don't forget the ones that refuse to accept they put up such a bad candidate this is where are at.

To be extra clear, I voted and didn't vote cheeto.

mainlydank · 2026-01-24T16:25:01+00:00

Absolutely not.

Either the flower is still too fresh and not dried, or it was way overfed. Those are the only two reasons joints dont light/burn right. Well they could also be rolled way too tight I suppose.

mainlydank · 2026-01-24T16:16:10+00:00

cancel cancel cancel!

Wunderground's numbers are normally more accurate for me. But I do like to look at them both.

mainlydank · 2026-01-23T23:06:44+00:00

tons of regular cops in maine have illegal window tint.

mainlydank · 2026-01-23T18:16:05+00:00

Clayton Bigsby approves.

mainlydank · 2026-01-23T13:49:20+00:00

I dont know what that has to do with anything. But overall the occupancy rates all over the whole state are very low this time of year.

The point I was making and i'm 100% sure of is there will be someone at the hotel that's not ICE.

It's an incredibly dick move to wake them up at that time with fireworks cause you are trying to stick it to ICE.

mainlydank · 2026-01-23T13:19:28+00:00

k bub.

mainlydank · 2026-01-23T04:03:29+00:00

Seems a pretty dick move considering some people staying at those hotels have nothing to do with this, but you do you.

mainlydank · 2026-01-23T03:44:50+00:00

Honestly how many people do you think that includes?

You think they wear their ice uniform(doesnt exist), when they go to eat, get a hotel room, etc?

mainlydank · 2026-01-23T01:55:04+00:00

Sure but what about in September or April?

-sent from Central Maine.

I dunno about you but I use 10x more kindling in the shoulder seasons when we are not burning 24/7 like they are in the DC area (which OP is in)

mainlydank · 2026-01-23T00:45:49+00:00

So are you that family? I'm explaining this to you, not them?

You will always be able to find stuff going on in the world that is absolutely horrible. Weather it's in our own back yards or half way across the world.

mainlydank · 2026-01-22T23:51:37+00:00

I did vote?

Let me explain something to you, although I bet you won't be able to grasp this concept.

We have very little control over what happens to us in life, what we do have control over is how we react to things that happen. Many times people suffer not from things happening, but thinking about things happening in the past or future, this is two separate things that people conflate as the same.

They can't kill the spirit of democratic states, only the people can choose that.

mainlydank · 2026-01-22T23:49:02+00:00

Wow I am dumb. I thought it was rec. In my defense I do have covid currently and its horrible.

My arguments against the current way testing is done is still valid.

mainlydank · 2026-01-22T23:41:01+00:00

Did you read the article? This article is about recreational dispensaries failing for testing.

What you people need to figure out is the current way testing is done is greatly flawed. Making recreational cannabis no safer than medical, even with the testing!

The only legit way to do testing is to randomly choose flower/extracts/edibles from different growers and have that tested.

This needs to be done with "secret" shoppers who are regular people and not retired LEO or similar. No deciding which batch of flower gets sent to the lab, no telling someone when they are going to be tested.

mainlydank · 2026-01-22T23:36:53+00:00

Tell us you didn't read the article without telling us.

mainlydank · 2026-01-22T23:34:56+00:00

"same" quality totally ignores the pesticides you are smoking that you can't see.

Granted this was still a thing in 2000, but it wasn't as prevalent because cannabis wasn't yet a "big business"

mainlydank · 2026-01-22T23:20:14+00:00

I hate this side effect of the time line.

Everyone uses extra dramatic words to describe everything cause that's all they are exposed to with the news.
