Just being verticle might not be enough.  I have saw some lite weight blades have the top edge forward of the bottom so in theroy causing the blade to dig in more.  Might be worth a shot, otherwise add some extra weight to your blade.

Cant say what all has changed on the 2017 models, but on my 2015, the switches that activate the lights for the shifter are inside the xase where the shift mechanism goes. On my unit, adjusting the linkage can make those lites come in or go off deoending on position of shifter.  On mine, when the reverse lite comes on, my machine is not actually full reverse and if I adjust for full reverse engagment, then the light won't work...  I woukdn't think the ecm would control this, however....what has changed over those two years??

?? for anyone who may have added some weights to their plow, so that it can dig better into heavy rained on snow, rather than ride up over it.

I'm peeved at my auto mechanic, who has had my Tacoma since October, to replace the power steering pump, and repair exhaust leak in the left bank, maybe just a gasket, maybe warped exhaust manifold, with that I'd be using that to plow with a bigger heavier (Curtis) plow

Not sure what type of plow you have, but I have a Pile Driver and that thing is heavy!!! Very heavy....it tajes to men to pickup the plow blade- push tube assembly !!!  Never had an issue with it riding up and over unless solid ice.  My old cycle country plow on my ATV was light weight so I added a piece of steel pipe to thevtop of the blade for added weight.  It helped but didnt solve the issue.   Would have been easier to bolt a heavy piece of angle iron to the top but pipe was all I had at the time...You need weight on the blade itself or right behind the blade on the push tubes to gain down pressure

Here in Ohio, the bike rider would be cited for not driving in an approved lane.  Riding on the center line between lanes is a no no!

I have an auto repair shop close by that I use and recomend.  He is a small independent shop, does great work and hasvtreated me very well over the past 10 years I have used him.  He charges 80 per hour and is making money hand over fist, always busy and pays his people better than any other shop in the area except the big dealerships. He has stated he doesnt understand how these service shops get away with charging so much, he has the same overhead, same computor diagnostic equipment, same pay for employees etc. Yes...he is always busy where the more expensive shops have far more free time which is probably why they charge more to cover the free time !!  No winder people are doing so much leasing nowadays....just keeping the vehicle thru the warranty period so there are no repair bills then turning the vehicle back in before repairs begin!!  Dealers are pricing themselves out of business, no way can they justify the 125 bucks per hour when they only pay their help 25-30 per hour if that !!  The machine shop where I worked can only get 100 per hour for labor and they have nunerous quarter million dollar CNC machines to pay for, I dont see any quarter million dollar pieces of equipment at an auto repair center !!   The charge that rate because they can !!  No wonder people are learning to do their own repairs !!

I use all NGK plugs in my machine, same that came with it.  In fact mine is original with 2200 miles on it.  I also use the seafoam fuel additive, have used it for years.  I pour it in the fuel as a cleaner and stabilizer. Helps overcome moisture in the tank and helps keep that steel tank from rusting.  Also use it in my lawnmower, both outboard motors on my boat as well as both snowblowers!!  Good stuff !!   My coolant tank plug also cracked so bought a plug with a snap top at local Menards.  They have a selection of different sizes, sort of looks like an old time thermos plug.  The 3/4" size works if you adjust the expansion as large as possible...  Keep us posted on what you find...

the tires I run have sipes

Sipes are great for wet pavement, not only channels water away but allows the rubber to move sort of like a squeege on the road !!!
