class="wp-caption-text">2012 Craftsman Premium Tractor</p></div><p>The move to launch a family of tractors at a car show rather than a conventional lawn and garden show could greatly increase visibility for the brand as it aims to move up market to better take on rivals like Deere &amp; Co , Cub Cadet and Toro Co . Craftsman generates $2.5 billion in annual revenue from power products, including drills and garage door openers.</p><p>About 750,000 people attend the Detroit show, including thousands of journalists from dozens of countries. For years, automakers have been using the venue to unveil next year&#8217;s models or test receptivity to moonshot concept cars.</p><p>At times, those automakers have even showed off products that are not part of typical product line, such as when Ford Motor Co unveiled electrified bicycles or Honda Motor Co &lt;7267.T&gt; featured its ASIMO humanoid robot.</p><p>&#8220;WHAT&#8217;S NEXT?&#8221;</p><p>However, the Detroit auto show&#8217;s decision to give Craftsman a platform promises to raise eyebrows of automotive purists who think auto shows should stick to cars.</p><p>&#8220;It&#8217;s an automobile show, stupid, not motorcycles or garden implements,&#8221; former General Motors Co product czar Bob Lutz said. &#8220;What&#8217;s next? Plumbing and bathroom fixtures? A Toto-toilet stand? An Art Van furniture stand?&#8221;</p><p>Lutz will be launching vehicles at the auto show for Via Motors, which is planning to build extended-range electric pickup trucks and sport utilities that operate like the Chevrolet Volt. These vehicles are based on GM models such as the Silverado truck or Tahoe SUV, but will be sold under the Via brand name.</p><p>He is on the Via board of directors.</p><p>Joe Rohatynski, a spokesman for the auto show, said the deal with Craftsman is purely a marketing partnership and not intended to rival the 40-plus vehicle launches it plans for the show. Craftsman will be in a concourse with other vendors like the History Channel and Hot Wheels, instead of on the show floor.</p><p>But Craftsman&#8217;s Malkoski sees the event as a significant debut of high-end products by a brand that has largely been associated with lower-priced mowers. The new tractors&#8217; 8-mile-per-hour top speed is at the top of the mower industry, she said.</p><p>Other features include press-button adjustments for blade height and attachments that quickly convert the mower into a hauler, aerator, sweeper or snowplow. It goes on sale in February at Sears stores in the United States.</p><p>&#8220;We were so excited about the launch of this line that we said &#8216;how can we take this tractor to the level that great cars are on?&#8217; Malkoski said.</p><p>The CTX line will be built in New York and Georgia by Briggs &amp; Stratton Co .</p><p>&#8216;A WHOLE DIFFERENT LIGHT&#8217;</p><p>&#8220;The idea is to put this Craftsman brand in a whole different light,&#8221; Michael Bernacchi, a marketing professor with University of Detroit Mercy, said. &#8220;They&#8217;re certainly looking to capitalize on the wow factor &#8230; and the curiosity factor.&#8221;</p><p>Craftsman&#8217;s not the only one looking for a boost.</p><p>The Detroit auto show in recent years has scaled back following a dramatic downturn in vehicle demand and the bankruptcies of two domestic automakers. In recent years, some automakers &#8212; including Porsche AG and Nissan Motor Co &lt;7201.T&gt; &#8212; didn&#8217;t even participate in the show, although they will return for 2012.</p><p>Like many auto shows around the world, Detroit organizers have courted a litany of emerging players in the global automotive business. The list includes Chinese auto makers yet to sell models in the United States, and alternative-energy vehicle makers with plans to sell battery-powered or hybrid cars, like Lutz&#8217;s work with the Via brand.</p><p>Wes Raynal, editor of AutoWeek magazine, said Detroit organizers have to this point largely avoided following its peers into the world of having a broad range of transportation products on the show floor. But he&#8217;s encouraged by the change.</p><p>&#8220;If you go to other shows around the world, you&#8217;ll see all kinds of different modes of transportation,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Some are there because they are just fans of the internal combustion engine and love wheeled toys, no matter what the toy&#8217;s purpose.&#8221;</p><p>He referenced the Tokyo auto show, in particular, where visitors can see scooters, bikes and other non-automotive transportation options.</p><p>(Reporting By John Stoll; Editing by Tiffany Wu, Phil Berlowitz)</p><p><a

Before you pack it up, make sure you properly prepare your snow blower for storage. Taking a little time to get your machine ready for the off-season will help prevent rust, corrosion and maintenance problems. Follow these tips for storing your gas-powered snow blower to ensure your machine is ready to go when the first snow falls next winter.</p><p><strong>Step 1: Dry out the tank</strong></p><p>Add stabilizer to your gas tank to prevent deposits from forming in your fuel system while your snow blower is in storage. Deposits can hinder your machine’s engine performance or stop it from running altogether. After you’ve added the stabilizer, allow the engine to run for approximately five minutes to ensure the inside of the tank gets coated. Right before storing your snow blower, let the engine run until the tank is dry. Try to start it to verify all the fuel is out of the system. If it starts successfully, continue running it until the tank is empty.</p><p><strong>Step 2: Inspect the parts</strong></p><p>Disconnect the spark plug wire to prevent your snow blower from starting while in storage. Then, inspect all the <a

Before storing your snow blower, tighten loose parts and replace any that are damaged or worn. When replacing parts, make sure you get genuine parts specific to your brand. This maximizes your machine’s performance and lifespan. Use the brand&#8217;s web site to quickly locate the correct replacements for your unique snow blower.</p><p><strong>Step 3: Clean it</strong></p><p>The next thing you need to do to prepare your snow blower for storage is clean it. You can use soap, water and a rag. In addition to preserving the appearance of your machine, cleaning it will help prevent rust and corrosion. Make sure you dry it thoroughly, and store it in a dry place either in your garage or shed.</p><div

It&#8217;s The Best Snow Blower For YOU!</em></p><p><strong>Great News! This year&#8217;s Black Friday Snow Blower is not a piece of junk like last year&#8217;s &#8220;deal&#8221; but it is a very basic machine.</strong>  But I will ONLY recommend this snow blower if you hate your single-stage snowblower and want something that will cut through those huge drifts at the end of your driveway that the city snow plow leaves. <strong>The main reason I am limiting my recommendation is : The snow blower only has one forward speed.</strong> It will be too slow most of the time and the rest of the time it will be to fast. If it had the standard 6 forward speeds like all the other Craftsman 2 stage snow blowers I would rate this machine as a GREAT DEAL!</p><p><strong>I can&#8217;t list the price for Black Friday yet, but it will be a great deal.  The price Friday morning will make this snowblower a better deal than the 24 inch SNOW DEVIL P.O.S. that Menard&#8217;s is selling this year.</strong></p><p><strong>There will be a limited number of these available Friday Morning at $499.  I understand there will be NO rain checks.

All of these snow blowers will give you years of service if you buy the right size for your driveway and do a little preventative maintenance each year. The 26 inch models I am using in this article can easily handle 60 to 80 inches of snow a year on a 2-car driveway up to 150 ft long.

class="wp-caption-text">Yes, They are all the same.</p></div><h3><strong> Features</strong>.</h3><p>Getting the exact machine and features for you is the top priority.  The 4-way chute control is nice. It is built better than the 2009 and older models and will hold up well.  The extended chute does a better job of putting the snow where you want it.   Being able to accurately put the snow where you want it can be a real blessing if your driveway is right up against your house or you have fences and other obstacles to go over.</p><p><strong>Cub Cadet Model 526 SWE:</strong>  Blue Poly Skid Shoes, 4-Way Chute, Headlight, Power Steering<br
/> <strong>Craftsman Model 88970:</strong> Black Poly Skid Shoes, 4-Way Chute,<br
/> <strong>Craftsman Model 88691:</strong> Black Poly Skid Shoes, 4-Way Chute, Power Steering<br
/> <strong>Troy-Bilt Model 31BM63P3711:</strong> Steel Skid Shoes, 4-Way Chute, Headlight,<br
/> <strong>Troy-Bilt Model 31BM73Q3711:</strong> Steel Skid Shoes, 4-Way Chute, Headlight, Power Steering, Track Drive<br
/> <strong>Yard Machines, MTD Pro, MTD Products, MTD Gold:</strong> Steel Skid Shoes, 2-Way Chute,<br
/> <strong>Yard-Man Model 31AM63LF701:</strong> Black Poly Skid Shoes, 4-Way Chute,<br
/> <strong>Craftsman®/MD Model 717952105:</strong> Black Poly Skid Shoes, 4-Way Chute, Headlight, Power Steering, Heated Handgrips<br
/> <strong>Craftsman®/MD Model 710352150:</strong> Black Poly Skid Shoes, 4-Way Chute, Headlight, Power Steering</p><p><strong>My opinion:</strong> The poly skids don’t scratch your cement driveway or sidewalks. In other words you won’t have brown (rust streaks) on your driveway in the spring.  They will last as long as steel skids and they are only $30 when you need to replace them. The 4 way chute allows you to precisely put the snow where you want it.  If you have never owned a snow blower where you can control both the chute and the discharge from behind the machine you don’t know what you are missing. <strong>Power Steering allows ANYONE to use this machine.</strong> It is worth the extra money if you have petite or older people use the snow blower.</p><h3><strong>Engine Size:</strong></h3><p>All of the engines on these snow throwers are made for MTD. The Powermore engines are not Briggs ripoffs or Honda Clones. These winterized engines are designed and manufactured to specific standards for the North American Snowblower market.  They are made by one of the world’s largest motorcycle engine manufactures not some fly-by-night garage and tent operation.  This engine manufacture also works with other brands you know and trust like Harley Davidson to deliver high quality engine components. Just like the Bosch starter in your car these motors are licensed from the manufacture so that Sears can put the Craftsman name on it or Cub Cadet can put their own name on it. Yes, I am patriotic just like you.  I would rather buy “Made in the USA” than made in China but there are currently only three &#8220;snow engine&#8221; brands being sold in the U.S. &#8211; Powermore, Briggs &amp; Stratton and LCT.</p><p><strong>Cub Cadet Model 526 SWE: 277 cc</strong><br
/> Craftsman Model 88970: 208 cc<br
/> Craftsman Model 88691: 208 cc<br
/> Troy-Bilt Model 31BM63P3711: 208 cc<br
/> Troy-Bilt Model 31BM73Q3711: 208 cc<br
/> Yard Machines, MTD Products, MTD Gold: 208 cc<br
/> Yard-Man, MTD Pro Model 31AM63LF701: 208 cc<br
/> <strong>Craftsman®/MD Model 717952105: 277 cc PowerMore</strong><br
/> Craftsman®/MD Model 710352150: 208 cc PowerMore</p><p><strong>My Opinion:</strong> The Cub Cadet clearly has the largest motor.  Cub Cadet has always tried to be a little better than the other brands manufactured by MTD so this is not surprise. Parts: Craftsman has parts readily available and a Cub Cadet Servicing Dealer will also get parts quickly.  With the other brands my understanding is you have to find a Service Center and then have them order the parts.</p><h3><strong>Warranty and </strong><strong>Service</strong><strong>:</strong></h3><p>Cub Cadet: 3 year limited. Authorized Servicing Dealers. These products can be very hard to get repaired UNLESS you buy them directly from a servicing dealer.<br
/> <strong>Craftsman: 2 year limited.  Optional 3 and 5 year full Protection Plan through Sears.</strong>  Buy the “home” plan. If you live anywhere in the United States Sears will come to you and fix the snow blower. The plans includes most wear &amp; tear items and fuel/carburetor repair problems.<br
/> Troy-Bilt:  2 year limited. Optional 3 and 4 year full extended warranty thru Lowes.  Lowes will send a technician to your home if you paid more than $800 your snow blower. Lowes.com<br
/> Yard Machines, MTD Products, MTD Gold: 2 year limited. These products can be very hard to get repiared UNLESS you buy them directly from a servicing dealer.<br
/> Yard-Man: 2 year limited. 2 year additional extended warranty that includes accidental damage through Northern Tool<br
/> MTD Pro: 2 year limited. Optional 3 and 5 year full Protection Plan through Sears.  Buy the “home” plan. If you live anywhere in the United States Sears will come to you and fix the snow blower.<br
/> Craftsman®/MD Model 710352150: 2 year limited.through Sears.ca</p><p><strong>My opinion:</strong> The most common issue I hear of today is automotive fuels (ethanol gas) messing up small engines. The Craftsman clearly is the winner here.  Sears has the only Service Program that covers fuel related problems and does the repair at your house.  These repairs can quickly add up to $250 or more so the 5 year repair plan is a bargain.</p><p>Limited warranties only cover manufacture defects, don’t cover getting the snowblower to the repair technician and very seldom cover the labor to replace the part.   Above all, manufacture defects warranties DO NOT cover carburetor and fuel related issues.</p><h3><strong>Price:</strong></h3><p>Cub Cadet Model 526 SWE: <strong>Highest price</strong> (Can sometimes be negotiated) Note: HomeDepot carries Cub Cadet but it appears they would rather sell you an Ariens.  Most of the time you will have to order the Cub Cadet from them and have it shipped to your home.<br
/> Craftsman Model 88970 &amp; 88691: <strong>Best Value</strong> for features. Sears.com runs special on-line sales that can be better than in the stores<br
/> Troy-Bilt Model 31BM63P3711 &amp; 31BM73Q3711:  Lowes “Tries To Be <strong>Lowest Price</strong>.” But know Sears has taken their &#8220;Turf Wars&#8221; to the snow and usually will beat Lowes price on the same spec&#8217;d machine.<br
/> Troy-Bilt Model : 208 cc<br
/> Yard Machines, MTD Products, MTD Gold: You will find these at hardware stores, online through various &#8220;stores&#8221;<br
/> Yard-Man: Northern Tool has good prices this year. Order through them and have it shipped directly to your door.<br
/> Craftsman®/MD: There&#8217;s no point in comparing their price&#8230;you can&#8217;t buy one anyway <img
src='http://movingsnow.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt="icon smile 2011 Craftsman, Cub Cadet, Troy Bilt, Yardman, MTD Pro, Yard Machines, Craftsman®/MD Snow Blowers Whats the Difference?" class='wp-smiley' title="2011 Craftsman, Cub Cadet, Troy Bilt, Yardman, MTD Pro, Yard Machines, Craftsman®/MD Snow Blowers Whats the Difference?" /></p><p><strong>My opinion:</strong> Although the Troy-Bilt at Lowes is usually the lowest price it does not have all the features of the Craftsman, Cub Cadet and Yard-Man snow blowers.  <strong>Be sure you have all the features you want before you take the lowest price.</strong></p><h3><strong>Summary:</strong></h3><p>As I said at the beginning, these brands of snow blowers are all the same, it&#8217;s just a few minor differences that differentiate them from each other.  The main three differences are price, service, and a few exclusive features each retailer has. Here are a few key points to leave you with.</p><p><strong>Getting the exact machine and features for you is the top priority.</strong>  The 4-way chute control is nice. It is built better than the 2009 and older models and will hold up well.  Power steering is a must if you are small or have a bad back.  The rest of the features like headlights are &#8220;nice&#8221; but not really needed. (tape a $20 LED flashlight to your handles)</p><p><strong>Getting it repaired should be your second priority</strong>.  Dumb things happen with snow blowers.  You forget to pickup the garden hose, your kids leave a toy in the drive, you don’t mark the edge of your patio with stakes, or some jerk throws a frozen bottle of water out of their car and you find it hiding in the snow.  If you do all of the repairs yourself, know how to get parts, have a heated garage, and don’t bother with warranties, buy the cheapest model.  If you don’t want to fix your machine, don’t know how to, or don’t have the time, buying an extended warranty or Protection Plan is the way to go.  <strong>Sears clearly has the best value here.</strong>  They use their own trained technicians, The technicians will come to you, have the longest plan, and the lowest cost per month. Just call 1-800-4MY-HOME to schedule the service and your snow blower gets fixed.</p><p><strong>Price is the last item to think about.</strong>  If you have a Cub Cadet Dealer down the street and the nearest Lowes or Home Depot is 60 miles away…….. buy the Cub Cadet. Sears is taking their 2011 “Turf War” price and availability campaign into snow blowers.  Good Luck to the rest of the big box stores!</p><p><strong>You can read more about each review by clicking on the model in the column to your right:</strong> Go here to read all of my reviews:  <a
