I was worried about the width, that the outer tires would be in the unplowed snow or in the piled up snow along side the path, but it wasn't really a problem. I think I have more traction than a single, more contact patch. This dually seems to push harder than the old K10 did, by far. In lighter snow, like 6" or so I barely touch the throttle, it just pushes without effort. I don't have any paved surfaces though, just a 10' pad in front of 1 garage. The rest is all gravel so that might make a difference.
