Yes! Finally a hitch plow with auto lift when you pull forward. I had the exact same idea, and I'm glad to see it functioning as I imagined! Incredible!
Lol, that's awesome! From present and past, the showing of how human ingenuity is created from annoyed humans looking for solutions threw engineering. Still not enough today considering we shouldn't have to look for solutions. I am just appreating your engineering! Brilliant!
The plow was just made to fit without plans. Here's a good still shot that shows more construction details. priuschat.com/threads/prius-powered-snowplow-just-for-fun.203725/#post-2847764
@@minnesotahybridbatteries7629 great setup. Any chance of a walk around video? I live in Minnesota out in Eagan. I have a Toyota Corolla that I'd like to setup like yours just to plow my driveway. Thank you, Chris.

I have to admit the autolift was copied from another UA-cam plow. Get out in your garage and build an improved version!
@@bradlindberg5353 excellent. I'll look for the other video to get ideas. Make any helpful mistakes that I could learn from?
I have this plow type for my golf cart but had a rope to lift it when backing up. I'm going to try this auto lift ASAP.
Going to be adding this to my truck TOMORROW. My back thanks you in advance.
The flip-up lifters, smart detail.
No different than me using my lawn mower and a blade. This is fantastic

Very nice. Well done.
LOVE this...Prius is a little snow beast and you have harnessed yours for special snow duty
This is BEAUTIFUL! WHY HAVE I NOT SEEN THIS BEFORE!?!?! Now I want to get one for my Tesla.
This is fantastic!
Do you have plans for this that could be made available?

I posted another video showing how the plow is built.
I must admit it's faster than a snow blower
It would be super good if you can add some thick PVC round pipe at the bottoms of the back drag legs you made, this is a great idea!
great job! Besides the plow how does the prius do in the snow ? Longtime 2009 owner and just bought some Blizzaks for my first snow season.
what if you put rollers just on the back edges of the lift mechanism so it doesn't drag at all?
There has to be some drag so the lifters will grab onto the surface a bit and lift the plow up.
@@leifhietala8074 that would provide enough drag anyways with wheels
I guess that's easier than it looks thanks to the rear camera :D
A rear camera would be nice. That Prius does not have one.
So what’s the gas mileage of a plowing Prius ? 😀
Prius for sale and no it wasn’t ever used for snow plowing 👌😬👀🤔🤣😂
The Prius can push some impressive snow!
good job japan(^_^)
