Just wanted to let anyone who might be interested in the ML, that this thing is great in the snow. In NY the past weekend we got around 8-12 inches of snow and this thing plowed right through roads that were not even touched with a plow! I know about the problems the ML has been plaqued with, I've been realtively lucky only dealing with a bad harmonic balancer, I caught it before it self destructed. I told myself that if this thing is good in the snow, I'll keep it around otherwise it's going in the spring!, looks like it might stick around for a couple of years. Anyone else impressed with the way the ML performs in the snow. Sorry for the long post but this thing really impressed me.

take care
