What are some names of big-box (and medium-box) stores in Michigan
(Detroit to Port-Huron area) that sell snowblowers?
Here in Ontario, nobody sells snowblowers in the $500 to $1100 price
range (which is a crock) so I'm going to buy one in Michigan. But to
do some comparative shopping either on the web or buy phone I need to
know who sells them.
Please post any responses (don't e-mail me).
Thanks.

Home Depot and Lowes sell them here in DE. Would imagine everyone sells
them further north.

Hmmm,
Why bother? Global warming. I haven't used mine in years. I just use
leaf blower to clear my drive way, LOL! Sears doesn't have it?
You don't have John Deere dealer around there?

I live in the snow belt of SW-Ontario. We get lake-effect snow in the
winter.

I'm looking for a 28" to 36" (wide), 2-stage blower. 7 to 12 hp.
Nobody in Ontario is selling a blower like that for less than $1100.
They aren't selling anything in the $500 to $1100 price range. All
the stuff under $500 are the wimpy single-stage blowers.
A couple years ago I was able to get a 24", 7 (or 9?) hp sears blower
(2-stage) for $800. I should be able to get a 36", 12 hp blower for
that price today...

Hi,
That's why I moved out here from S.S. Marie in 1970.
Tired of shovelling thick wet snow., LOL!
Good luck finding one while exchange rate is favorable.
