  • We install the F-12 by sno power. Then test it in an icy abandoned lot. Covered in densely packed snow- lets see what it can do.

    I have a boss I installed myself. Wiring was easy, and the was no frame drilling, but I don’t like the low ground clearance when not plowing. I will never hit my rear differential with it installed, but the fisher plates I removed gave way more clearance.
    I like the plow featured. Except it doesn’t seem to stack snow. I have only had one storm i used the v as a v to break through shush piles that turned to ice while pushing.
    My transmission runs 150, it doesn’t overheat even with the plow, but my water temp will get high at idle. I click to manual and drop it down a gear and it comes right back down. That’s a new issue with an orielly water pump and thermostat.

    Neat plow works good. Talked about no plow lights needed reminded me of my parents neighbor the truck he had. It was a 70s f250 can't remember what plow he had but the truck sat so high he didn't need plow lights. I am thinking it was a highboy but not 100% sure about that. Of course back then the trucks seem to sit higher then today's trucks do. My dad had a 75 f100 and that sat higher then my 01 Silverado does.

    Hey I’ve watched several other videos on this plow. Also installed plenty of plow wiring back in the day. In my opinion plows should be on separate and own wiring. But now they have plow prep wiring on new trucks. It helps lockup these new 8-10 speed trans from shifting into a gear not good for plowing .

Now the truck sees 125-145 degrees on the trans temp with my 7.5’ Boss straight blade. Regular cruising around town the truck rarely gets over 130 degrees.

    Does it have down pressure? I'm wondering why you're pushing snow on the walks? Why wouldn't you do those first, then plow?

    It's looks like some good engineering went into the f12, would love to see a comparison to the western wideout or snowex 810, as far as snow production is.
    Thanks, happy spring, at least here in the northeast!

    Why would you want to raise your front end UP while plowing? I would think you’d adjust the plow to be just above “digging “ it into the ground.
