Be careful and do not overexert yourself, which is hard to determine. Years ago, I blew two transmissions on two different vehicles. One was even a 360 Dodge Maxivan. When you use a tractor, you can feel the power required when using a blade. In a vehicle, not so much.I picked up this Snowsport HD on Facebook Marketplace after seeing good reviews and doing some napkin math. It seems like it will do the trick on my very flat driveway when my battery-electric snowblower is overpowered by slush or heavy snow.
Based on the forecast I should be able to try it out soon. The view out of the lower rear camera is excellent. The ride height is set to Auto - All-Purpose and so I can go lower if required.

Thanks for sharing. You mentioned 2019-2020…did you move out of the snow or did something else stop you from continuing?Well, this brings back the memories.....2019-2020- I had one hitched to my Tesla(Model X and Model Y) in Wisconsin. It did a great job with a half circle driveway. I would install in my garage and use the rear view camera to get the job done while sipping coffee in my 80 deg ride. It would get a lot of attention. The Rivian is a perfect setup for this plow. See videos.
Good question …..My only issue with the plow approach is that with heavy snowfall I would end up running out of room to push the snow. I live off a busy road and couldn’t easily push it across and away from the driveway. I ended up caving in and going with a snowblower. Certainly not as much fun.Thanks for sharing.
