This 22” single stage snow blower is an option to consider if you are looking for a powerful and reliable machine. It is perfect for cleaning medium size 4-8 car driveways. Due to the powerful, self-propelled auger, this machine will easily grind through packed and icy snow (up to 12.5” high). Although, keep in mind, that the gasoline engine of this unit will require some extra maintenance.

Pros
Pro It's suitable for working in low temperatures
As this snow blower has a freeze resistant rewind starter, it is guaranteed to start in temperatures as low as -20 degrees Fahrenheit. Additionally, you can use the electric start feature if the temperature dips even lower. Just plug a 110 - 120 VAC power cord to the machine, and it will start with a press of a button.
Cons
Con Gasoline engine requires extra maintenance
Compared to the electric snow blowers, this machine requires much more maintenance. You need to constantly monitor the level of motor oil, occasionally change the spark plugs, and check the air-filters. On top of this, storing the unit outside the now season requires the operator to fully remove the gasoline from the system.
